I was listening to the Skolnick interview on Maximum Threshold and he made it sound like their trying to record in the fall and get it out by the end of the year, but it might take longer. I think it will be a freaking miracle if a new record comes out this year. I hate to sound pessimistic, but with all the touring and side project touring it doesn't sound like the record is much of a priority. I imagine they make more money playing live than off records and they've got bills to pay like we do, so better not get your hopes up.
