Simple Plan is the third studio album by the Canadian band Simple Plan which is set to be released on February 12, 2008.

History

Having finished most touring in support of Still Not Getting Any... in March 2006, the band took some time off and then began work on new material. On July 1, 2007, they hit the studio and they began tracking. They started with drum tracking in Los Angeles after pre-production, then went back to Montreal to finish the rest of the recording process. During September 2007, the band had finished recording and went back to L.A. to mix the album with Chris Lord-Alge. After mixing, the band went to New York to master the album, thus finishing the building of the album. This was announced on October 21.

The first single from the CD, "When I'm Gone", was released on October 29, via iTunes and via lala.com. The "world premiere" of the song was part of a webcast with band members, in which the band answered fan questions. On October 24, Simple Plan had put up a 25 second preview of "When I'm Gone" on their website.

The CD was originally set for release on January 29, 2008. However, on November 29, 2007, the band announced a two weeks' delay due to production difficulties, and the need to re-record some lyrics from the song "Generation."

An album cover was released in early December 2007. Soon afterwards, in his Myspace blog, band frontman Pierre Bouvier responded to fan concerns about the cover, defending the artwork. However, on December 12, the band released a second proposed album cover, and invited fan views by email about each, indicating (despite Bouvier's earlier comments) that they were fine with either cover. On December 14, 2007, the alternative cover depicted above was announced as selected over the original one depicted below.

"Your Love Is a Lie"" was first publicly performed at a taping for YouTube on December 18, 2007. Most if not all of the other songs were played at a small show in Montreal on January 11, 2008.
