Single ‘Baby Doncha Know’ and album announcement

On May 4, 2021, the band put out a single called “Baby Doncha Know” and announced their eighth album that would be released on July 23 titled 9th & Walnut , named after the intersection in Long Beach, California , where their first rehearsal space was located. The album was recorded primarily during a 2002 session featuring the original lineup of Stevenson, Frank Navetta, and Tony Lombardo, with Milo Aukerman recording his lead vocals for the album at home in Delaware during the COVID-19 pandemic . It contains eighteen songs written by the band between 1977 and 1981, including re-recorded versions of “Ride the Wild” and “It’s a Hectic World”. The album serves as the band’s first recording since Everything Sucks to feature this “classic” lineup.
