“2025 was a wild year for so many reasons and we did some awesome shit but definitely the raddest was releasing new music with the Mock-Ups. @/gerardway and I wrote this music awhile ago and our friend, Doug Mckean, initially recorded and engineered it at Gerard's spot.

Unfortunately, Doug passed away before it was finished. We sat on the music for some time and after a while we decided to finish it up. We hit up @/kevinsweatshop from the @/theinterrupters to have him put his magic touch on it and to finish what Doug started. We would go to Kevin's house and record, drink a bunch of coffee and just hang out. Kevin brought his crazy talented brother, @/jessebivona and wife, @/aimeeinterrupter to throw down as well. Once it was all finished I asked one of my best friends, @/jasonmklein, if he could help put it out on his independent label, @/gauzyrecords.

Jason put so much into this during a pretty wild time in his life and I truly couldn't be more honored doing this with people who I truly love.

This was a true dream - a celebration of a moment in time-friends making punk rock music to make life worth living.

Truly humbled by all the love and support this project has gotten over the past few months and can't wait to see what the future holds.

Up the punx ❤️‍🔥”

So it seems that many people’s suspicions were correct. This music was originally written with Doug McKean, and Gerard and Michael decided to hold on to it until they could find someone else to do it justice with the production. The comment about how he can’t wait to see what the future holds also bodes well, perhaps there is more on the horizon!
