Over/Under on how many future annual April Fool’s jokes will center around the forthcoming Gigatoo album release?

The best April Fools joke would be to post actual news and lead people to believe it is false when it’s actually true.

We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

Also, could just be a reference to the line "Home is where the broken heart is" from Who Eve Said.

New interview with Josh in Spin says that there were a bunch of songs in various stages of completion leftover. Gigaton 2 is ON! Possibly.

Interesting that in a previous interview Josh said they hadn't worked on any other tracks and now he's contradicting himself.

Not really. He never said there were more completed songs, and he doesnt now...
Though 12 songs ultimately comprise Gigaton, there were a bunch of other tunes, though, at different stages, that weren’t completed during the sessions. But in the end, Evans says, the album revealed itself in how it turned out.

However, most of the Gigaton songs were completed in the last quarter of 2019.... So it can be done if there's enough unfinished material...

Let's not get suckered in again. Remember the supposed EP?

But also remember the artwork leak on April 1st.

I think it would be cool to have a "Gigaton Side B" full of scraps of unfinished ideas
