should we go ahead and do that?

i think we should go ahead and do that
yes go ahead and do that and then feel free to put all your pungent thoughts in that thread exclusively. we'll visit, i promise.
i just heard about a blog post by Ed’s fluffer who heard the album and the spritzy punk track and he said it is the greatest 128 seconds of spritzy punk he has ever heard. the lyrics describe the experiences of hundreds of middle age men huddling in the tunnel of a baseball stadium during a heavy rainstorm and wondering if the merch stand will still be waiting for them when the monsoon passes. a true epic about men struggling to keep their dignity and quenching their insatiable thirst for knick knacks historically intended for minors. in the last verse, the protagonist catches a glimpse of himself in a restroom mirror as he is mid-argument with another man about tour poster containers and realizes that the music has begun, but he doesn’t care. he just wants the poster, to add to his collection of posters, in the room with no doors, which no one will see

Recap of what we know so far about the album:

+ Album cover will be black
+ Can’t Deny Me is on it 93%
+ Ed’s serfs heard it and said it is good
+ Boom sings on two tracks
+ Spritzy punk track is best of its kind
+ Future Days is on it again, because this time it will catch on
+ BOB is not involved, until they panic 1 week before release and fly him in to re-mix it

The Future Days and Boom singing parts look like jokes, but the rest seems true. So I'm not sure what to think.

I'm really disappointed that Jeff or Stone didn't just say "you know what? Fuck it, I quit" after CDM.

Yes it’s just a matter of it’s before the tour starts or after now. I’m guessing before but it wouldn’t surprise me if it is after.

From memory they played “Lightning Bolt” Mind Your Manners” and “Future Days” live before Lightning Bolt (album) was released.

Worse case scenario we will definitely have at least one single off the album released by the European tour imho.

I’m hoping for a 15 track Binaural kind of thing.

Either way I know I’ll be excited when we have confirmation of any release date/album name/track list.

I hope they do the track list release like they did last time
Keep seeing rumours now about a april US tour that will be announced in january. And that a new album announcement is to be expected at the same time....
I see those rumours at the Pit and the great trustworthy source that is Facebookgroups ;)

Reading the tea leaves it seems like an announcement in January for a new album and tour in March.
