On May 4, 2018 it was announced that the series would return and that Ribbed: Live in a Dive would be issued in August of that year.[4][5] It was also announced that a song from the album could be heard on the compilation album Fat Music for Wrecked People: Punk in Drublic 2018, which was released in May 2018. This turned out to be "Just the Flu", which was made available for streaming later that year.[6] In June 2018 the song "Cheese/Where's My Slice" was also put online.[7]

Ribbed: Live in a Dive is the first album in the Live in a Dive series in over 13 years after the release of Live in a Dive by Lagwagon.
