The Cranberries announced Wednesday they will release a new album early next year, the band's last record to feature late singer Dolores O'Riordan.

"After much consideration, we have decided to finish what we started," the group said in a statement. "We thought about it and decided that as this is something that we started as a band, with Dolores, we should push ahead and finish it." O'Riordan, who died in January at age 46, completed her vocals last year.
