Did anyone else pick up on this? Check this out.

How many versions or mixes did you do before Dan and Pat were happy? It seems like a long time between recording [August 2009] and it was mixed and finished for release.

It took about 15 actual days to mix [Brothers]. We did 19 mixes, 19 songs, or something. Maybe it was more than that. They re-did a couple of songs, completely changed them. I started a little bit timid with them and they said ‘No, do what you want, take it out’. We got to a point where I found out it was OK for me to really push the boundaries with things. At that point I think we knew what we all wanted and we were all on the same page which made it easier. They had also decided to record more songs. So we started before Christmas [2009] and then I didn’t get new stuff until half-way through January I think.

The line I underlined states they wanted to record more songs. This January recording session is most likely for another album. This information aligns itself with what Pat Carney said about the band releasing more than one album in 2010. Get excited people!

Didn't they say something like three Black Key album's and another Blakroc? I hope they release three records this year that would be so great.

They should (and probably will, since they said so) start releasing more albums more often. What have they got to lose? They're already 100 times more famous and successful than they ever thought they would be (unless they had ESP or extremely high opinions of themselves when they started making music).

They've put out so many albums already, why not just unleash the fury? Fuck a grand plan. Fuck some calculated schedule of album releasing. Just let it all hang out, balls to the wall.

Even Led Zeppelin started to suck after 6 or 7 albums, yet TBK show no signs of stopping (or sucking). I'm all for it.

That would be great for TBK to release 3 albums in a year's span. Ryan Adams did it, and I'm sure that TBK would put out three consistant releases that are great listens as opposed to Ryan Adams (Cold Roses and Jacksonville City Nights were great, but 29???).
