Grammy-nominated band Sum 41 has shared their newest single “Waiting On A Twist Of Fate”, out now via Rise Records, from their upcoming final album Heaven :x: Hell.

The second single from the double album’s pop-punk Heaven side, “Waiting On A Twist Of Fate” harkens back to the earliest days of the band’s pop punk roots. The track opens the album the only way long-time fans would expect Sum 41 to open an album – a flurry of guitar riffs, drum fills, and vocals powerful enough to raise the dead. “Waiting On A Twist Of Fate” is available to stream now HERE

“Waiting On A Twist Of Fate” is paired alongside a brand new music video, filmed at the Punk Rock Museum in Las Vegas, pays homage to the music that inspired the formation of Sum 41 that the members hold close to their hearts to this day.

The video features a cameo from CJ Ramone, as well as footage of Sum 41 inside of Green Day’s infamous tour bus the Bookmobile.

Sum 41 announced their upcoming double album, Heaven :x: Hell, expected for release on March 29 via Rise Records. Heaven :x: Hell is the most ambitious album from Sum 41 yet – Heaven is 10 tracks of snarling high energy pop punk, while Hell consists of ten heavy metal anthems spiked with fret-burning solos, thrashing riffs, and fist-pumping hooks.  The band has been straddling the line of pop-punk and metal for their entire career, and Heaven :x: Hell is a testament to their innovative sound and unmatched skill, proving them as pioneers 27 years after the bands inception.
