Snot talks legacy, reunion & new album at Sick New World

Snot packed in fans at Sick New World, delivering a tight, high-energy set as the band continues its return to the stage.

SWOMP caught up with guitarist Mikey Doling and bassist John Fahnestock after the show, where the conversation quickly turned to the legacy of original frontman Lynn Strait, who died in a 1998 car accident.

That history still drives the band — but so does what’s next.

Snot has brought in new vocalist Andy Knapp, earning praise as the group pushes forward with fresh momentum.

The Las Vegas set followed a Sick New World pre-party alongside P.O.D. and Alien Ant Farm, and comes amid a run that includes a sold-out show at the Whisky a Go Go — a nod to the band’s early days.

They’re also back in the studio.

“We’ve been writing and recording… the energy has been undeniable,” Doling said, noting multiple new songs are already finished.

More details are expected soon.
