In this months OOR magazine (biggest dutch music magazine; http://www.oor.nl) there's a short interview with Jeff, not much interesting except the following. He said that they recorded some incredible rock songs that did not fit on backspacer very well and he was hopefull that they will enter the studio again early next year to do some final recording/mixing on those tracks aiming at an new release within a year.

Similar words were already spoken by Mike on several interviews:
BM: I noticed you kept the songs very short, very direct, kind of garage-y. Were you sort of reining in the tendencies to make them a little bit more like that?

MM: I think we didn’t initially know that we were reining them in. We had about seventeen ideas going into this project, seventeen to twenty. And when we were at about eleven pretty much finished, Brendan (O’Brien, producer) and Ed sat down and said, “Hey, this looks like a really good record.” Stone (Gossard, guitarist) had been talking about wanting to have a record that was shorter, more concise and I think we achieved that. That being said, we still have other songs that are out there that are from this session that we may do something with in about six months. http://www.rockband.com/zine/mccready_interview

So, what do you guys think? Could this happen? I certainly hope so, I expect (wishfull thinking) they do a euro summer tour (just 4 shows overhere is not enough ;) ) so it could generate some buzz at that time. Some hard rockers to take on the road. But I'm not sure if Ed is into this, apparently Mike & Jeff are. And I'm sure Matt and Brendan will not have any problem with this. So it's probably again up to Stone & Ed....

    Something tells me with the movie about Pearl Jam coming out from Cameron Crowe in 2011 that some new music from the band will accompany the film.

    I hope this is true. Having multiple members say something similar makes me think it was something that was discussed at some point. If they do more extensive touring next summer then releasing an EP would kinda make sense to get some buzz, albeit small prob, to set up the tour. I like backspacer a lot so I would love to see what other things were going on during this recording session. Fingers crossed.

    Maybe these tracks can be for 10c members only since we could not open vault w/ 10c cd's like targets! :o

    Ooh, very nice idea! Except for the killer hardcover, I want more for my 10C purchase! Well, not really, I was excited beyond belief that I got the album a few days early, so whatever.

    This would be so cool

    as despite backspacer being an awesome record we all know it's ten mins and 3 tracks short

    when the band are this on form it's only natural to want more and more

    Hasnt Ed said this somewhere too? Thought he did. Sounds like its going to happen one way or the other. Mr. Kurtis has also said they would be touring next year as well. This band says a lot of things though.

    Only problem I can see is recording with Brendan OBrien so soon. He's a popular producer who is always working on an album or two and has quite a waiting list for bands, Im sure.
    Get over here!

    I hope Brendan O would find some time in his busy schedule to work with the mighty PJ. The next Nickelback record can wait
