from The Fire Theft Website (former sunny day real estate) comes this news:
"New information! The Fire Theft are looking to have the new album finished in September, shooting for a Fall release. Currently they are in talks with 4 different labels. They also hope to play a show somewhere in Washington in September. Nate unfortunately needs to tour with The Foo Fighters so it depends if they can get a friend to play bass. Before anyone sends me 527 e-mails asking where its at and if you can play bass for them, a.) Its to be announced and b.) They have someone particular in mind, thank you though…SDRE/TFT fans are the best in the world.

The band wishes to apologize for the slow going news and contributes most of this to all of the members pursuing other projects in addition to The Fire Theft. Jeremy is currently doing the score for the upcoming Kevin Spacey film "The United States of Leland". Will has a new project going on with Billy Dolan of 5ive Style and Heroic Doses (who you all might remember Nick Macri from as well, who played Bass for SDRE on tour, and is currently touring with Tim Kinsella's new band Friend/Enemy. I caught them in Philly at The Khyber, check them out). Nate will be touring with the Foo Fighters."
