Prepare to indulge your 2002 self, Avril Lavigne has a new album and it's coming out soon

The Sk8er Boi hitmaker is releasing new music in February.

Along with Groovy Chick paraphernalia, Lizzy McGuire and Sunny D, nothing harks us back to the good ol’ pre-teen days than the sound of an Avril Lavigne banger.

Avril’s debut album, Let Go in 2002 had hits like Sk8er Boi and Complicated and we were ALL about it.

It’s been quite some time, five years in fact, that the Canadian singer has released new tunes but she’s making a comeback in 2019.

The 34-year-old took to social media yesterday to announce that her new album, Head Above Water will be released on 15 February next year.

On Twitter, fans went mad announcing they had already pre-ordered and were keen for the singer to announce tour dates.

She has already released the first single from the album called Tell Me It’s Over and while it’s not the absolute tune that Sk8ter Boi is, we’re hoping there will be a few punk bangers in there.

The singer’s five-year hiatus was due to illness. She contracted Lyme disease, which has a range of symptoms and can leave the sufferer feeling exhausted.

We’re delighted she seems back to good health and is back on the music scene. Hopefully, we’ll have a few new guilty pleasures to be listening to in 2019.
