We’ve still got some time to wait for a new A Perfect Circle album. Band mastermind Billy Howerdel was recently interviewed by The Salt Lake Tribune and revealed that he was hoping to have the album out in November through their new label home of BMG—though he conceded it might be anywhere up until next spring at the latest. Speaking of what they have in the works so far, he offered:
“We have a good batch of material under way that I’m feeling good about. It’s been a solitary process up until very recently. It’s an interesting thing sitting with these songs in their infancy and you’re the only one who really knows them or hears them, and then all of a sudden you’re releasing them into the world for the band to hear and to get their interpretation on, and Maynard‘s interpretation. It’s a wild process.”
In addition to the new song “Feathers” the band have been playing on their current tour, they may also debut some other new tracks. He said of that:
“This was just a way to get out there and play again and try out some of these new songs. A big part of doing this four-week run is to try to feel out some material in a live sense. I go back and forth between the process of just presenting the audience or fans with what they’re gonna hear or including them in the process of discovery, and that’s kinda what we’re doing with these songs.”
