Jay Weinberg – current drummer for Suicidal Tendencies and former Slipknot drummer – is working on his debut solo album due out sometime in 2025. Weinberg noted in an Instagram post that he's been working on the material for quite some time, and only recently found the inspiration to pick them back up. Weinberg doesn't mention any specific release timeframe outside this year, so keep an eye out!
"Though the phrase 'New Year's resolution' has never really connected with me, I've always believed in the power of intention, and following through on setting manageable goals," wrote Weinberg. "One of my ambitions for 2025 is to record more music in the studio — starting with my own material I've been writing for quite a while. Some of which I've been working away at since my early 20's.
"This photo is from 2017, during a period of time when I had actually put together a group to play this music in a band setting, during a prolonged downtime from touring. It was awesome, and a great creative challenge. I haven't touched these songs since then, until recently feeling inspiration to pick the guitar back up and kick this stuff around again. It's been a fulfilling experience, and I'll tell you — I'm starting to like where these songs are headed. It feels good to finally set the intention of releasing some of this new music in the coming year.
"I'm so looking forward to all the onstage fun that's ahead of us (Suicidal Tendencies supporting Metallica in stadiums, are you kidding me?) — and I'm equally pumped to spend considerable time in the studio, especially working on this collection of songs. Stoked for you to hear them. When they're ready, you'll know."
