They've never said anything about the new album being released aside
from No! being set for September. TDK posted a while back that Jim
Stabile, TMBG's product manager (?) had told him that Unreliable
Narrator was slated to come out in July/August but that never made any
sense to me...
Albums don't usually get released until a minimum of 3 months after
they are finished and seeing as it is almost July now and there is no
info about Unreliable Narrator I think it's safe to assume it won't be
out anytime soon...I'd love it if I were wrong but I wouldn't hold my
breath for it...
There are three main reasons why I don't think UN will be out this
summer and probably not in 2000 at all:
1. No! is coming out in September. Releasing an album a few months
before or after that would be silly. It's possible, since a
"children's album" and a "standard album" are aimed at different
groups (although they'll both be bought by all the same people...us.)
and lord knows 2 albums semi-simultaneously will make up for no true
albums over 4 years:)
2. They aren't touring at all this summer. When UN comes out you can
bet they'll be doing a full blown tour for it. It's their first album
in almost/over 4 years depending on when it comes out...
3. They've been talking about No! forever but haven't said much about
UN except that they seem to want to be signed to a major label before
they put it out. That hasn't happened yet...They wouldn't be making
such a big deal about a children's album coming out it September if
they had a TMBG album proper coming out in a month or so....
Oh well I''ve got to go to work, hi ho hi ho...

No, you're wrong.
SEVERE TIRE DAMAGE doesn't count since it was mostly live material, and LONG
TALL WEEKEND was never given an official release in CD format.

LTW is still an album though, and it was material that would have been
all new if it wasn't distributed in bootleg form (well, except Token,
but most likely the majority of FS owners didn't know about it). That's
what really gets me about LTW complaints, people were complaining it
wasn't new because they had the bootleg. Anyway, why does it have to be
on CD to be an official release? MP3s are the way of the future (or at
least audio compression and digital distribution, the format may
change).

Yes, thank you. I still think STD was an album, though. I guess you could say, however, that FS
wasn't really an album because it didn't have enough songs on it, and JH was just an experiment, and
Apollo 18 wasn't that good anyway, so they haven't had an album in 10 years.

I'll give you Flood (I was thinking of responding with that), but
Lincoln is their best album. Maybe it's because it was the one that got
me really hooked (I had the Pink Album first, and I liked it, but
Lincoln is what really made me a fan), but it's the one I still listen
to the most.

Well, I was kidding.
TMBG is doing a tour in support of the UN? I didn't know they got involved in
politics!

Well, after my corrections, it seems that they actually have 19
"official" albums out

Let's hope the format changes, because Mp3s are crap. Like New Coke or
Coke II or Clear Tab.

I loved Crystal Clear Pepsi. It was the stupidest idea on Earth, but it
was still good. I had an obsession for putting food coloring in mine.

192 VBR MP3s aren't bad at all though. I find it hard to distinguish
them from the original in most cases.

It was Pepsi.. but it was clear. Unless of course you got the nasty
citrus kind. That stuff was horrible.
It tasted like Pepsi but it was clear and had no caffeine.
That was called Crystal. We're talking about Crystal Pepsi.

Yeah I know, I drank Crystal Clear Pepsi to death when it was around.
But I remember this one time at a bowling alley I saw a label that said
"Crystal Clear Pepsi", bought the Pepsi, and it said "Crystal Clear
Pepsi: Citrus Flavored" on the label.
It kinda tasted like flat Pepsi. Almost liquorice-like. It was good though.

New Coke and Coke II are the same thing.

Actually, Crystal Pepsi was not that bad. Just the other three were
really bad.
Yes, but they were marketed under both names at separate times (New Coke
in the '80's, Coke II around the time of Clear Tab in the '90's).
