After years of silence, Snot<\/a><\/strong> have officially entered the studio to record their first new material in over 25 years. The band is working with acclaimed producer Chris Collier<\/strong> (Korn<\/a><\/strong>, Prong<\/a><\/strong>), who’s overseeing the sessions. These new tracks will mark the recorded debut of Andy Knapp<\/strong>, who joined the band as lead vocalist in 2024. Since then, Snot<\/a><\/strong> have been back on the road, tearing up stages and reclaiming their place in the heavy music world.<\/p>\n In an update posted to their Instagram on July 13, the band shared: “Snot<\/a><\/strong> has just entered the studio with producer, engineer, mixer Chris Collier<\/strong> @cmc21productions at the helm laying down tracks for two brand new songs which are set to be released late 2025 or early 2026.”<\/p>\n Snot<\/a><\/strong> originally exploded onto the scene in the late ’90s with their unpredictable and high-energy sound. Their 1997 debut Get Some<\/em> became a cult classic, showcasing the magnetic charisma of late frontman Lynn Strait<\/strong>. Tragically, Strait<\/strong> died in a car accident in December 1998 at just 30 years old \u2013 just as the band was preparing to record their second album.<\/p>\n What followed was both heartbreaking and beautiful: in 2000, Snot<\/a><\/strong> released Strait Up<\/em>, a tribute album featuring some of the biggest names in heavy music. Fred Durst<\/strong>, Jonathan Davis<\/strong>, Corey Taylor<\/strong>, Max Cavalera<\/strong>, and many more contributed vocals in honor of Strait<\/strong>‘s legacy. It remains one of the most emotionally charged and unique records to come out of the n\u00fc-metal movement.<\/p>\n In the years since, Snot<\/a><\/strong> activity has been sporadic \u2013 brief reunions, one-off shows, and lineup shifts \u2013 but a full-scale comeback never fully materialized.<\/p>\n That changed in 2025. With Andy Knapp<\/strong> on the mic, Snot<\/a><\/strong> officially returned, bringing their raw, chaotic energy back to the stage. Knapp<\/strong> may be a newcomer, but he’s been killing it live, winning over longtime fans with ease.<\/p>\n Now, with new music finally on the horizon, the comeback feels real. Founding bassist John “Tumor” Fahnestock<\/strong> recently teased a short snippet of what’s to come on social media \u2013 and while it’s just a taste, it sounds really promising. Crushing riffs, tight grooves, and that signature Snot<\/a><\/strong> bite. For fans who’ve waited decades, this is the moment.<\/p>\n The band is aiming to release the new material in late 2025 or early 2026.<\/p>\n Enter your information below to get a daily update with all of our headlines and receive The Orchard Metal newsletter.<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n<\/div>\n\n
