How many songs are created for their new album already?

[bohemians.]

3?

[Firthy2002]

Who knows?

It may be that they go back to the vaults and finish songs they'd started writing previously.

[GalataPSB]

Who knows????



or

[Hillbilly]

Isn't it ONE + ONE = FIVE?

And of course 2/0 = 0!

[vincenzosz]

I know! I'm itching for any tidbits about the new album.

[Radiophonic]

Is there a new album?

[bohemians.]

so 8 already

[vincenzosz]

Neil mentioned this past December that they have the title already chosen for the next album ( apparently it's the shortest PSB album title to date, which makes me think it will be "response" album titled No, but I kinda hope I'm wrong), and it's been mentioned by them a few times that they've begun writing. Neil also mentioned that what they were working on was a step away from orchestral sounds and much "simpler". So who knows...?!?!

[glennjridge]

geez given how prolific these 2 are in all likelyhood they've got over an albums worth of demos for the new one already.
but I doubt they are at the recording stage, we would have heard something about that.

[Young Offender]

They probably have a few leftover that they saved from the musical?

[tottenhammattspurs]

They've probably got all of them written as no doubt EMI will rinse out another bloody compilation between now and the next album!

I think if it hadn't been for the Take That support slot they would have the songwriting pretty much completed now and be ready to enter the studio with a view to a Spring 2012 release. This has obviously slowed things down and means the wait is probably going to be substantially longer than between "Fundamental" and "Yes". I imagine we might see some release this year, maybe a new b-sides compilation or "It Couldn't Happen Here" on DVD.

Didn't Neil say they were writing whilst on the TT tour?

Yes he did, but I this would have been more concentrated if they weren't touring.

Living in a hotel for a week or so in each city doing a 40 min. gig each night, probably without soundcheck? Sounds like plenty of time for concentrated song writing.
