I remember Jim referencing calypso to his next album because his rockin out on tour caused him to be hospitalized. I took it mostly as a joke. However, I would not be surprised if they go into the whole soul and reggae route. I guess we will see....

Haha, quite right.
Most of the time they're just shit outtakes though, Chills being the exception of course.

Watch as you get an entire demos disc when the new album comes out.  ;)

It's on the Off The Record single, which my friend bought a while back.  You might be able to find it online or in a store like Newbury Comics.

i fu wanna hear chills all you have to do is buy a record player and then buy Z on vynl - and its on there, right after dondante.  epic to say the least.  other wise - its on the new demo disc right?
Title: Re: New Album Predictions...
Post by: DaFunkyPrecedent on May 27, 2007, 03:37 PM
my predictions though - something thing we have never heard before and something that is amazing to watch live.  they will headline festies after this album is released.  They are gonna make music that are gonna be fun to preform - so whatever that entails - not "ill be there when u die" kinda stuff.

I spend enough money, i don't need to start a vinyl collection.
And I knew it was on the off the record single, i just don't want to purchase that just for one song.

I'd say I am looking forward to more It still Moves on the next album, with a rocktronic/alt flavor , 40/60 combo overall. I think they would merge the best of Z and ISM

judging by how their live show has evolved over the years i would probably wager it will be more Zish arena rock type stuff.......however they are at that "place" right now where they have had two extremely acclaimed albums back to back so the next one will probably panned by the critics just because.
