Some things to consider:

1. They were in "pre-production" for over a year.
2. Albums do not take that long to record--if they've got the material down, and we know they've got a large cache to draw upon--then it can go very quickly.
3. Albums SHOULD NOT take a year to record. That usually means they're over-thinking the songs, recording SUAD 125 times, etc. If it's going to be a great album, it'll coalesce fairly quickly. I'm saying end of tour at the LATEST, not Christmas.

    from my experiences, things that are refered to as 'swiss' are refered to as such because they come from switzerland.

    1. year long pre-production could be do to all the other shit they have been doing. i.e. dave in movies etc....
    2. albums can and do take that long, especially when band members have lives, families, side projects.... etc, etc...., plus maybe they are doing more writing in the studio then what they have done in the past.
    3. refer to number 2

    See: BTCS... That's all you really need to look at to see what kind of impact Tim has on the band in studio.

    i totally agree, pal. i was just telling berman that a 2009 release is crazy

    personally i'd rather they took FIVE friggin years to produce an awesome album, instead of rushing into things and not taking their time. take as long as it needs, i say. screw impatient fans like myself and everyone else on here hehe

    it will be worth the wait

    Without Tim, DMB are like those basket players in Space Jam!

    honestly, I hope they don't release the cd until 09 because that means they aren't rushing anything. I don't think they're anywhere near done with the cd. They're still creating songs and discussing ideas.

    As much as I want a new cd soon, I'd much rather have an amazing album

    100% Without a doubt, Tim was not on the LWS. Though you could say, while the LWS looked to be amazing, things just fell apart without Tim .

    They've been working on this album since pre-summer tour 2006. They aren't going to rush it, and who's to say 2010 wouldn't be better then 2009? We have no idea how far a long it is, but if it comes out in 2008. I don't think it will benefit from coming out later. I think the band will know when this thing is done whether it's 08 or 09.

    It'll be done when it's done. There's no way to say it'll be better cuz it takes longer. It's all about what they put out. We just gotta wait and see
