Avril Lavigne’s upcoming studio album, Love Sux, set for release on February 25, will include plenty of collaborations.
What Are The Collabs That Love Sux Will Have?
You read that right! Avril’s follow-up to 2019’s Head Above Water is coming out next month. The pop-punk star told fans that due to the Covid-19 pandemic, there were a lot of musicians who were stranded in Los Angeles, and she was able to join forces with some of them for new songs that will be included in the new album, Love Sux.
She said, “I have a bunch of different features on the record; the most I have had before, as everyone was in town.”
Avril also described her new album as a “love letter to women and self-empowerment.” During an Instagram Live, she added, “The spirit and the energy of this record is so much fun.”
As for now, the collaborations that are confirmed for Love Sux include the newly-released track “Love It When You Hate Me,” featuring blackbear; alongside the unreleased songs “Bois Lie” featuring Machine Gun Kelly (which we found a year ago!) And “All I Wanted,” featuring Mark Hoppus. We’ll have to wait and see what other surprises Avril has in store for her fans!

Avril Recently Signed With Travis Barker’s DTA Records
The album will arrive through Travis Barker’s DTA Records and Avril recently praised the Blink-182 rocker for being a “blast” to work with. “Well, it all started with Blink 182 being one of my favorite bands. And I have admired Travis my entire career. We worked together on ‘The Best Damn Thing’ on that album and he played drums. And then on this, Travis is producing, we’re writing together and we just had such a blast collaborating in the studio.”
She added, “Now, I’m signed to DTA Records, which is his label. It just felt like a natural fit and it made sense. And I think creatively, we just click, he gets me. Working with Travis, you’re totally right. He gets it because he’s an artist. He’ll like to sit around, chat with me, give me his opinion and feedback.”
