10th album rumors and speculation

[LetMeSleep]

6 tracks under 3:32. Bit worrying but the 1:13 track sounds like it's either a bridging track (Pry, To, AyeD) or a collage track (PMPM). It's not something that PJ does often and both those albums are better for their inclusion.

"Distant Planet" was apparently the original title of "Force of Nature".

Agreed. I don't mind short tracks, or even punk, if there's something clever about the album's construction and a bit of art and / or humour in there. But wow, they don't usually do humour very well. Johnny Guitar is possibly the funniest they've been since Vitalogy.

Hmmm... could indicate a fake tracklist.

"In The Time Of Man" was also one of those Backspacer working titles along with Cigarette Song pt 1 and 2, etc. As was "Shift".

Ah fuck it. Thought they sounded familiar.

That's pwnt.

What's to say these aren't from previous sessions and have now found their place? Like Brain of J?

Indeed.

Weren't You Are and Other Side both titled Other Side for a while too? Perhaps they're happy to recycle titles of unreleased songs if they're still fond of them.

[dimejinky99]

Exactly. Those are great titles.

Do we know where this came from? It's not on the pit, unless its been removed

I actually like the idea of going back to old bits of songs and reworking them. The thing I most crave out of PJ these days, I suppose, is familiarity. If it sounds like the (good) old PJ I know and love I'll probably like it. It seems like they go wrong when they try to do new things these days. That whole New Wave thing... I dunno, R.E.M would've done it well, not so much PJ.

[dimejinky99]

They all sound like very PJ titles. I really hope these are legit.

[WtOB?]

I wonder why they left Navy Bean off the new record..

[Birds in Hell]

Yes it is, still there for the time being.

Oh right. Thanks fella. If it gets removed, we'll soon know the score.
It'd tie in with that radio guy from seattle saying its finished

[harmless]

Totally want new music now.

I wonder if they left 'Ole' off because it 'didn't fit' (arbitrary decision), or because it wasn't good enough (preferable, but I'm not sure if I trust their taste these days).

[WtOB?]

They probably released it because they never intended it for the next record.

Agreed, I'd presumed Olé wouldn't be on the new record.

Maybe they reworked Ole into Billy Billy Micropenis.
