Heaven :x: Hell is the eighth and final studio album from Canadian band Sum 41, released on 29 March 2024 through Rise Records. It is their only record for the label, which they joined after leaving independent outfit Hopeless Records in 2023. The singles ran from "Landmines" in September 2023 through "Rise Up" and "Waiting on a Twist of Fate" to "Dopamine", which arrived on release day.

What makes it worth hearing is the way it's laid out. As a double album, it splits the band's two personalities across separate discs. Heaven goes back to the pop-punk of their early years, while Hell carries on with the heavy metal direction they took in the years after. It works as a neat summing-up of where they started and where they ended up. A final video, for "Radio Silence", followed on 1 April 2025, two days after the band's induction into the Canadian Music Hall of Fame.
