Following Dez Caneda's departure from the band, The Misfits have made several announcements. First, they officially announced their new guitar player and co-vocalist. Those duties will be handled by Jerry Only's son, Jerry Jr. Second, the band announced the release of a new 7-inch single. The single was written by Jerry Only and will include the songs "Zombie Girl" and "Vampire Girl." Third, the band has announced a fairly extensive tour where they will be playing Static Age plus other songs. Certain cities will also get a second night where the band will also play Walk Among Us and Earth AD in full. As to Cadena, the band stated:

"Dez began with the ‘fits as a special guest on the 25th Anniversary tour in 2001, and shortly after became the permanent guitarist through to present. We all wish Dez the best with his future endeavors, and the Misfits begin a new chapter."
