With recent tweets from Nate and Jared about being in the pre-production stage of album #6, we might as well have a thread about it here too. Jared & Nick of Mona talked to Zane Lowe yesterday, to talk about Smoke & Jackal of course, but also about their respective bands' upcoming releases. Jared mentioned they have a chip on their shoulder like they had when they recorded BOTT. Of course that doesn't mean it's actually gonna sound like BOTT, but it seems to me that they're more determined to make a great album. You can listen to the full interview here (link courtesy of CTK) I'm curious to find out which producer they've chosen and was happy to hear that they're gonna record more songs than will end up on the album, as well as Caleb having written lyrics beforehand.

I hope that's actually true, and they are not saying it just because that's what most KOL fans want to hear. But the anticipation is always so exciting!

Where do you all get this 'BOTT sound' from, cos I didn't hear Jared say it...

That's the interview I posted as well. But I don't hear him say it. Zane kinda asked if it's gonna be like BOTT, and Jared didn't even reply to that. He only said that they're (currently) having a chip on their shoulder like they did when they recorded BOTT but that says more about their mood than how the result is gonna sound, right?

Where do you all get this 'BOTT sound' from, cos I didn't hear Jared say it... I think some people have selective hearing, so they jump on any mention of BOTT. But you are correct, he doesn't say anything about it actually sounding BOTT-ish and I was also perplexed where that notion came from?

^ thanks for confirming I've not gone loco. Also, I really hope it's not gonna take till next autumn before it's released! Don't remember anymore who said it (probably Jared though) but they're going to the studio in Nov/Dec to record. I very strongly doubt production/mixing and the actual pressing of the cds and all its secondary work take up half a year or more.

I think it might actually be less about the actual recording and mixing, but more about marketing. I know they've released a bunch of their records in the Spring and in the Fall. I suppose they can release it in the spring and then go on tour for the summer/fall to support it?

Nate just posted this short clip: www.viddy.com/video/19fd0a2f-e1d1-4f10-a15c-9127984cbcd1It's too short to really say something about it, but it sounds a bit country ballad which is not my favourite type of song of theirs. Hope they remember they're (supposed to be) a rock band.

It's been over 2years since CAS was released so I guess everybody is starving for the album#6. I can't wait & truly believe it's gonna sound more like BOTT than another CAS :-)

Orrr, you know, they could make a complete U-turn and just make another ASH or YAYM ... did someone say wishful thinking?

I'm getting really impatient for #6. I'm so desperate to hear what they've done with it this time and I miss the band so much. The tweets are driving me nuts - in a good way, but still!

I wish they could give us a tiny snippet, I mean is 5 secs too much to ask ? Also Nathan tweeted about cowbells, I hope there won't be too much of it because I remember the songs with cowbells on the last album (or was it on OBTN ?) were the ones I liked the least. I want to see them back, I want new interviews, articles, the lot. I am also excited about everything they will come up with, in every domains.
