Editing Tim Armstrong (section)

=== DOOM Regulator ===
In March 2023, Armstrong announced the formation of a new band called Bad Optix that featured his former Operation Ivy bandmate [[Jesse Michaels]], [[Circle Jerks]] drummer [[Joey Castillo]] and [[Trash Talk (band)|Trash Talk]] bassist Spencer Pollard. The group released their first single called "Raid" and Armstrong promised tons more songs to come. "I always felt a little sadness that Jesse and I stopped making music together. But we never lost touch. And then it happened. A few years ago we started writing songs again! A couple of the songs ended up on Grade 2's record. Jesse and I just started writing again a lot. It came back. Just like that. Like when we were kids. There is a special chemistry between us and I don't take it for granted" Armstrong said.<ref>{{Cite web |date=2023-03-29 |title=
