Can’t figure out how to tag this but is this saying new album in 2 weeks?

Edit: Wait it’s April 1 in Europe probably.

A local radio station posted some comments from Mike today about how they have a bunch of songs in the works for a new album.

Cannot confirm whether or not such comments were made on April 1st.

The band refused to tour this year cos they don’t have a new record.
Can’t imagine who’s fault that might be. Internal strife abounds.

Take that for what it’s worth.

We all know it is either Ed or Stone. Or both. Everyone else has expressed their desire to make new music.

Kerrang a while back:

It’s been almost six years since 2013’s Lightning Bolt, and while Mike agrees that “it’s the longest I think we’ve had between records”, he says that they’re going to “get something cool this year”.

“We did a huge tour last year like we were talking about, so we’re all still recovering from that,” Mike says. “We’re writing songs for new record. We did our last record about five years ago. Hopefully we’re going to get that thing done soon. It’s been a bit, it’s been a little while… It’s the longest I think we’ve had between records. We’ve got a bunch of songs ready to go, and I think we’re going to get something cool this year. Hopefully it will be out, I don’t have a date on anything yet, though.”

Mike’s words echo the sentiments of guitarist Stone Gossard and bassist Jeff Ament, who said back in January that they were “in the middle” of writing album number 11.

“We’re going to make a record, and we’re in the middle of it,” says guitarist Stone Gossard. “We’re just going to keep plugging away until we get one done.”

“We’ve gone in, probably, four or five times in the last couple of years, so we have a whole ton of unfinished stuff,” bassist Jeff Ament adds. “We’re just sort of in a little bit of limbo. I’m sure everybody’s got a bunch more riffs, and I’m sure [frontman Eddie Vedder]’s got a handful of journal lyrics. It’s just going to take us all getting into a room together for six weeks and just knocking something out.

“This is a broken record, but I think I’ve said that I would record a lot more with Pearl Jam if that was what could happen,” continues Jeff. “It just hasn’t happened for some reason.”

Very much doubt it’s Stone.

"in the middle of it" = album 11 out in 2025?

Of course it is Ed. Fuck it, the rest of the guys should find someone else and just form a new band. They all played so loose and fun when they recently toured as TotD. The rest of them work so well together and feed off of each other. I wouldn't hate it if they took a break from Ed just to make a record with someone, then come back in a year or two and tour again.
