I don't know if many of you like 3eb the way I do, but I thought it might be fitting to start a discussion about their new album in the works here due to a relativley similar genre. I get most of my info from The Village Churchyard fan forums. The guitarist Tony frequently posts updates and other stuff there.
This is what I gather so far:
The band has been going through a kind of cult following rebirth lately. The album they are recording (right now in fact!) has been in the works for two years. I know... it sounds like a new "Chinese Democracy", but they are finally in the studio laying down tracks and have a lot of cool stuff that's about to break. They just got back from a couple weeks touring Japan and have done dozens of sold out shows over the last year. They've debuted an albums worth of songs live... anyways, you can probably find out most of this by lurking there if you're interested.
In addition to a new album they will be overhauling their official site (which hasn't been updated FOREVER) and starting their own imprint label for distribution. Supposedly they finally lit a fire under Stephan Jenkins butt sufficient to finally do something. Here's hoping they finally cash in here.
Thoughts?
PS - the album is supposed to drop November/December with possible digital release/album single in August/September
