Jay Weinberg<\/strong> has officially announced his departure from Suicidal Tendencies<\/strong>, bringing an end to his nearly two-year stint behind the kit with the California crossover thrash and hardcore punk icons.<\/p>\n

Earlier today, Weinberg<\/strong> shared the news via Instagram<\/a>, posting nearly two dozen photos documenting his time on the road with Suicidal Tendencies<\/strong>. In an emotional and deeply appreciative message, Weinberg<\/strong> made it clear that the split is amicable \u2014 and rooted in a major new chapter in his personal life. Suicidal Tendencies<\/strong> has not yet announced a replacement for Weinberg<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

“As an exciting and busy 2026 takes shape, I’d like to thank Suicidal Tendencies<\/strong> for bringing me onboard for an incredible year and a half of shows! What an absolute blast.<\/p>\n

“With @chloweinberg’s & my first child on the way, I’ve been dedicating time to passion projects like @portraitsofanapparition, a growing series of collaborations, finally building a proper at-home creative space, and some new in-the-works projects that I can’t quite announce just yet. Although there’s a lot of work left to complete over the next five months, it’s been a joy to commit to finally getting these things across their artistic finish lines before my focus naturally shifts to becoming a first-time father.<\/p>\n

“Though I won’t be jamming with the fellas, I can’t possibly overstate the love and respect I have for them, the SUICIDAL<\/strong> Army and extended family, and all the cyco fans I’ve met across six continents playing shows with one of my favorite bands!<\/p>\n

“Mike<\/strong>, Dean<\/strong>, @benweinman, and @tyetru: you guys picked up a friend when he was down, and gave him the opportunity to truly feel the message of ‘You Can’t Bring Me Down’ at a time when he needed it the most. I can’t thank you enough for that, and I can’t wait to see what you all do next.<\/p>\n

“I quite literally can’t conceive of my life as a drummer without the profound influence of SUICIDAL TENDENCIES<\/strong>. So many of my drumming heroes have added to the historic legacy of this band, and it’s the honor of a lifetime to contribute to it myself in some way.<\/p>\n

“To our amazing crew mates @deathtotravis @chris.waiau @coreykoniz @jonrechsteiner @gallowsdrums @ssamhaven @chuckzillathekilla @bradhinds @mrsn_th @rafael_galbes @andrekbelo @andrewrmrtaylor, Brendan, and Mathieu \u2014 thank you guys so much for everything! ST<\/strong> for life!”\n\t\t\t<\/p>\n
