Fleet Foxes Album Not Due Out Soon

11:15 a.m. · October 14, 2010 · by Andrew Winistorfer

Back in September, Robin Pecknold, lead singer of Fleet Foxes, announced that his band had finished recording their sophomore album, and were readying it for release sometime next year. But apparently that was optimistic; On a post on the Fleet Foxes Facebook page, Pecknold said the album isn't quite done, and the band will be recording new material soon. That puts the doubt on whether it'll be out on schedule next year, or if it'll be out in 2012, even. Here's what Pecknold wrote:

Hey, so, I guess I spoke too soon before. The record, while close to being done, still has a ways to go. Would have been nice to have realized this BEFORE flying to New York to finish it, but so it goes. This is how the first record went too - I think two songs were kept from the first batch of 12 we recorded for that album. Back into the cave. Thanks for waiting / caring, we just want it to be really great. -RP
