Nope. The Features broke up. I think Rollum is still going to try and put it out on an indie label, though.

I think that the single is going to be released in Feb/Mar and the album is going to be released in Mar/Apr. That could be wrong.

I'm glad this has been brought up again. Just yesterday I was wondering if anyone knew anything about the album. Has there been any new information released since Sept. (well, aside from the mississippi video)? Any word yet on how many songs will be included, a working title, artwork, tracklisting, etc. I know its probably at least 2-4 months away from being released, but surely there are some general ideas about things.

You didn't happen to hear something different for the UK, did you? Seeing as you specified the States...
Will
fairly certain he'll be importing the new Features album just like he did with Parachutes and Is This It, just surprised that he'll be doing it with The Features for God's sake.

I assumed that since the album was on Universal and not Fierce Panda, the whole England/USA thing would be done with. I have nothing to back this up.

well i can't say that i'd be thrilled if that turns out to be the case. I mean, i'm sure there would be some sort of reasoning behind it. However it just doesn't seem right to think that the londoners will be hearing it before us longtime fans. Perhaps they will sell it at shows before its "official" u.s. release.

If the album is released overseas before it hits the states, there's no reason it wouldn't be available to fans first. It would be nice for the band to set up a pre-order for the new album.
I'm also wondering if there will be any differences in track listing for the US and import versions. Japan always seems to get bonus tracks on just about everything released there. UK gets bonus tracks but it doesn't seem like that's the case as much. US releases are starting to come out now with bonus tracks not available on the UK versions, which is a nice change.

I have heard from a pretty reliable source that the album will be called "Exhibit A" and the Begining will be rereleased by Universal with new artwork in the United States .

I had never thought of using Exhibit A, but that definitely works. All this information that all of you keep hearing from reliable sources proves to me how out of the loop I am these days. Oh well.
