Sum 41 has announced that their 2008 Greatest Hits album will be released worldwide this year. The original release was restricted to Japan but this wide release will feature the same material but the band is changing the title and artwork.

The band had this to say:

We've been getting a lot of fans asking us to release it around the world. So we've decided to just go for it and release the Greatest Hits worldwide so anyone who wants it can go get it. Thanks to all our japanese fans for making it a way bigger success than we all imagined.

We're also in the studio working on our new album that should be out this year too.

The hits record is titled All The Good Shit and is due out March 17, 2009
