He added: "It's a long process — we do a lot of demoing and stuff — but I think that we'll have — I'm hoping — I think we'll have a new record by next year. We should." Last month, FOO FIGHTERS released a surprise live EP. Titled "00950025", the three-song effort features "elusive live tracks," namely performances of "For All the Cows" and "Wattershed" from the band's headline set at 1995's Reading festival, as well as a live recording of "Next Year" from a 2000 concert in Melbourne, Australia.
