    so either mike is throwing a wrench in things to keep the focus on his current projects or the insiders have been duped.

    the past has told us different on that one.

    I agree.  Reading his body language on that Fox appearance today, my opinion was he was *really* trying hard to hold back on something he wanted to say.  Either he wanted to spill the beans about the record being done and ready to release, or trying really hard not to throw his bandmates under the bus.  But he was not being fully truthful, in some way/

    I think it's possible he didn't want to show his frustration at the lack of music making by PJ over the last few years.

    We're all guessing here, but that's kinda how I read it.

    Here we go, like I said before, the new PJ record is NOT done yet.

    "(...) not only, during the interview McCready confirmed that the band has been writing songs in the last two years for the new album and that they are still working on new material. Few hours after this interview Mike appeared on FOX5NY adding that the band is writing new material but that at the moment there is no release date for the new album."

    I always thought that having no news of any activity and then all of a sudden the album was finished was a bit hard to believe. Hope it comes sometime next year

  • Maybe they listened to the new Tool album and decided they should probably work on stepping up their game until they have an amazing album start to finish before any more "forthcoming" announcements.

    For those that are concerned, what could Mike have said if the album was done that would make you feel better but not be a pseudo album announcement?

    These guys have been lying about album updates for awhile

    "We've got a bunch of things recorded that we're pretty excited about. Right now we are working on narrowing down the song list and deciding what works best for this project and getting a mix finalized. Hopefully it will be ready next year"......something like that would give the impression that the album is close but not imminent. Saying "we're writing some stuff..." sounds like it isn't close at all, which makes sense since we haven't heard anything about the band even being in the same room together since last tour

  • This is interesting though.  Two board members that feel 100% of their belief in the album progress but are complete opposite on progress.

    i think each member of the band has been following the same "songs are in various stages of completion" script for the last 3 years. so who knows.

  • The band/Mgmt/10c has ALWAYS played stuff close to the chest. Why is anyone shocked/dismayed? I get that there is a want of new stuff. They do too. It will happen at some point. chill.

    Just watched the clip. Looked more to me like being annoyed about being asked the inevitable question. Like how every single family member would ask me if I had a secret girlfriend at Christmas back when I was single.
    I don’t think he was hiding anything, he flat out said at the very end he’d very much like to get back and make more music.

    The new PJ album is not done yet, they're working on it, as I already wrote on 08/22 ...
