Gigaton: Official album thread

[CopperTom]

Another Binaural/Riot Act would be a great achievement.

This is an unreasonable expectation.

[Strat]

IF (when) the new one does come out, they've managed to put out, on average, 1 album every three years or so .

I guess that's really not that bad?

[evenslow]

They were on a torrid pace through Binaural.

6 albums (plus Mirror/Merkin Ball, myriad b-sides, etc) in less than 9 years.

From Vs to Yield in particular is 4 albums, MirrorMerk, and a handful of solo/side projects in less than 4 1/2 years,

They raped and pillaged that creative well. No wonder it's empty.

[Strat]

They raped the horses and road off on the women!

[McParadigm]

The more you write, the more you have to write.

Unthought Known came on PJ Radio just now. This sounds so much better than anything since, ugh.

[liebzz]

I hope they announce on Monday for no specific reason other than there will be tons of speculation as to whether it’s a joke.

[McParadigm]

tons

[VinylGuy]

Cready has show now..in montana. And Jeff is not playing.

“We’re writing songs for the new record in these days” told Mike, “We’ve got a bunch songs ready to go”.

That literally all that was said, lol. I was expecting to read more quotes from Mike. Oh well, "ready to go" probably means "waiting on Ed".

didn't Mike say – like 5 days ago – that he had no idea about a new record or when they'd be writing together?

he must have gotten a spanking and is doing damage control.

The continued on this pace until 2002.

2000- Binaural
2000- Rockfords (Mccready)
2001- Bayleaf
2002- Riot Act

And lets not forget that the bulk of ukelele songs was written in 2001

The well was dry right after they left Sony....Correlation?

.

5 days has got to be their longest studio session in years

[scrub12]

Mike clearly not very involved in this stuff.

[bodysnatcher]

Good

[bodysnatcher]

“We did a huge tour last year like we were talking about, so we’re all still recovering from that. We’re writing songs for another record. We did our last record about 5 years ago. Hopefully we’re going to get that thing done soon. It’s been a bit, it’s been a little while.”

He added, “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.”
