I really hope we get some kind of follow up information concerning the "upcoming" album soon. It was clearly delibarate that it had been mentioned alongside the T-Shirt-Tweet to let us know it is still being planned to be released (and that Robert did not change his mind about it). I hope there wonĀ“t be another long dead silence period after this encouraging life sign. š
i like how, in the first post of this thread (more than 5 years ago), bob was quoted as saying: āSo, yes, weāre going in about six weeks time to finish off what will be our first album in more than a decade. Itās very exciting times for us all around.ā
FINISH. OFF.
Yes. that's what was happenening!
Since then more than one member of the band lost family members. Including both of Robert's parents & his brother. Then there was the small matter of a global pandemic.
As far as I remember Robert said in interviews before the start of the pandemic that their personal losses influenced the album. IsnĀ“t "It can never be the same" supposed to be about the death of RobertĀ“s mother and "I can never say goodbye" is about his brother. So I think the death of very close relatives occured probably before RobertĀ“s statement to finish off the new album?

He did said so.
ICNBTS first played live back in 2016 is about his mom.
A lot before Smith said anything about SOALW album
ICNSG is about his brother (Richard)
The new album will be released soon enough by now and i have a question for you my dear paleiko
Let's assume that the release day will be...a year from now,won't you get it at the end?
Propably yes,so why to rush anymore, anyway?
You've been waited,we all been waited for so long.

Ouh well love is a hard thing,isn't?
My dear figie, first of all: please stop gatekeeping. You are not RobertĀ“s lawyer.
I do not know what your problem is concerning stating facts. You basically confirmed them. So why the fuss?
Further on you may have interpreted my posting in a wrong way. I did not state those facts (concerning steveĀ“s posting) to prove that Robert had enough time to finish the album, but more in response to steveĀ“s (in my opinion) pretty unfair (almost manipulative, sorry steve I still like you) posting. Rivum must feel bad after that kind of posting.

Sorry. I wasn't intended in that way. I just felt a bit more perspective would help. So rivum, don't take it personally. It wasn't meant to be at all.

nah, I took it as you intended - a bit of additional insight. us canadians always assume everyone is being nice and helpful!

i'm not so smart to be anyone's lawyer (myself included) not even so bastard too
So...
I just can't help out of reading so many 'cries' (if that makes any sense at all) about the new long awaited (and still not be released) album
That's all.
Word 'dear' from my side wasn't said ironically ,to be clear.
:-)
p.s. : of course you will get it and of course you will like it
and of course you will make complaints of how better it should have been sounded after so long time they had to prepare it.
