Fozzy have shared details of their new album.
'Boombox' will arrive on April 15 and features the previously unveiled singles Nowhere To Run and Sane, with a third track expected early in 2022. It finds the band uniting with producer Johnny Andrews and marks their first full-length in five years. Fozzy frontman Chris Jericho said:
"Judas… both the album and the song was a HUGE breakthrough for Fozzy. It took us to the next level and positioned us as legit players at rock radio and as a live draw. As a result, we knew that we had to follow up with the album of a lifetime. 'Boombox' is that album!! You’ve already heard the top ten singles Nowhere To Run and Sane - kick ass, hooky songs that set the tone for this record. But it's I Still Burn, Army Of One and Relax, that in my opinion are going to take this album and this band even further up the rock 'n' roll ladder!
"I firmly believe this is the third best album of our entire career!! (Of course I think it's our best…but I always wanted to hear a band say that). So crank the volume and hold the Boombox up to your earholes!! It’s gonna be a wild ride."
Alongside the news, the band have announced the US leg of their Save The World Tour 2022, kicking off on March 31 in Detroit, Michigan, and culminating on May 16 in Sauget, Illinois. The run also includes a special 'Boombox' release show at Irving Plaza in New York City on April 11.
They'll be joined on the trek by special guests GFM, KrashKarma, and The Nocturnal Affair, with tickets on sale now. Head here for details.
Fozzy are currently on the road in the UK and were due to perform in Swansea tonight (December 10), though the show was cancelled by the band yesterday evening. A statement from the group reads:
"Chris was checked into Hospital by doctors, with a non Covid related, treatable health issue. Regrettably, the show on Friday in Swansea is cancelled, and all tickets will be refunded. Will have updates on Saturday's show in Nottingham and Sunday's show in London as soon as possible."
Fozzy Upcoming Tour Dates are as follows
