I think there is a longer gap here. I also suspect that (god help me) it probably makes sense to think of the marketing strategy as a wave--since there is a long time there will be crests and lulls--with the little bits of information out now seeds (permit me to mix metaphors) that will be harvested later.
Again, they had to start things now because of the tour. They are hardly in a full fledged pre album build up yet (I suspect)

considering they can all record shit themselves, i'm surprised they even take the time to all get in the same room. in a few years, i'm picturing them literally mailing shit to BOB and saying piece it together.

Maybe you don't.
You're right. What was I thinking? I will steadfastly wait at my local supermarket until the new Rolling Stone containing a blurb about the new record on page 45 arrives.
Seriously though, who exactly would these guys be 'marketing' their record to? I want to know....
