Adam and Larry are always very honest and blunt- Adam recently having said they don’t have much to work with yet. This is a band who will scrap albums at the last moment because they wanted radio hits. 2025 is a best case scenario, it could be longer than that. Meanwhile they supposedly have Ascent finished after 13 years but they don’t want to release it. I call BS, Ascent isn’t anywhere closed to finish and it’s probably why Adam is now saying Ascent+rock album might end becoming the same record.
