Threshold have announced their first 2011 live shows. New album 2011 perhaps...
I had the same feeling, but I don't think it's possible since the band should already be recording*, considering that the usual schedule, as from what I remember from studio diaries, allows one week per instrument (but I think this was when they recorded Clone), plus there's vocals, overdubs, mixing, re-recordings, listening, re-mixing, re-recording, re-mixing, re-listening, etc.
Plus, labels usually need several months of gap between the finalizing of the album and its actual release, for pressing, promotion, etc.
*actually, they could have started recording, but as from what I read on Richard's facebook status, he's still finishing his parallel project.
