      Looks like we’ll have to keep waiting : this is a tour / re-issue thing, not a “let’s make a new album” thing. Sadly.

        “two new songs”

        • toyg

          Two new songs is hardly a “new album”, more like a “let’s publish some shit which didn’t make the cut first time around”.

            Where did I say that two new songs is a new album?

          • zombiebob

             you implied it

  • LinkMan

    I think “reunite” is kind of the wrong word since the whole point of the Postal Service was that they were in two different geographic locations and snail mailed the tracks back and forth as they worked on them.

    Maybe “found some more stamps”?

    Wake me up when there’s news about Figurine. (And listen to Figurine, which is, in my opinion, Jimmy Tamborello’s best work.)
