    They still can be, but generally artists planning a surprise album don’t spend 18 months mentioning that they are working on an album in interviews before announcing it’s finished on stage at a show. Also surprise albums pretty much by definition come out digitally months before the vinyl and I don’t think PJ wants to do that.

    It's (almost) impossible for a surprise PJ album to come out tomorrow. PJ are not Radiohead. Different worlds of approach to these things.

    However, I hope the album can be released in the first half of this year even if it seems - from what I know, a 100% certain source - that all the members of the group hope so but there is no certain release date yet.

    yes and it would seem strange to me to start this tour in May without the new album

    Metallica did pretty well keeping the release of 72 Seasons a secret.

    Obviously it wouldn't be a surprise since we know one is coming. But meant more like we might be expecting it in April. Then, Bam!. It's out today sort of surprise

    I've got it from a pretty reliable source the first single will be a song called Wrecker. 

    Dark Matter is another song name.

    Dark Matter.  Wrecker.  Sounds like a dark, wasteland theme.  Buffalo makes sense for the title now

    Hearing the Bills' playoff performances over the last 30 years weighed heavily on the band during recording sessions

    Wrecker kind of sounds like Echo I guess. Not sure how's it's related to the Buffalo Niagara Falls area?

    It's Wecker, not Wrecker, and that explains the Buffalo connection.
