“I’m hoping it’s gonna come out [in 2024],” McCready said. “We have a bunch of songs tracked. We worked with Andrew Watt, who’s a younger pop producer-type guy, but he’s really a rock guy at heart — I think we’re his favorite band. When we were in the studio with him this past year, he really kicked our asses, got us focused and playing, song after song.”

Yes. It's all old, recycled info.

I believe the revenue from streaming services is paltry at best, but it depends on their agreement with the record label, in part. So, from the perspective of building hype and # of streams, the pre album singles do much better as you say. I just don't know that it's very accretive to the bottom line. Of course, artists' revenue these days comes from touring, merchandise, endorsements, partnerships, etc, and NOT from record sales/streams.
Don't they publish with their own label? I'm assuming they user a bigger company for distribution.

I'm just excited that this new album will finally have the definitive version of "Of The Earth"

i imagine (and this is speculative), the status, prestiege, or warm fuzzies that come from a ‘number one on X chart’ is what would matter the most. and of course that could impact partnerships etc

Hopefully they’ll be able to rework every live song to add a C&R.

Or......

lines from Stupid Mop laced into the mix here and there throughout.

"My spanking, that's the only thing I want so much"

"Just like a girl wants sex with a boy, you know?"
"For me, it's all about the time we're having just playing the songs. So if it's kind of a mindless good time, then....."

if there are fewer than 8 'weenis' references in this album lyrics it will be a missed opportunity
