Where's The New ZZ Top Album?

The band don't seem to know what's happening with their new album

Published 23rd Apr 2012

In a new interview with Noise11.com, Gibbons revealed that ZZ Top didn't know when their new album would be released, and they didn't know what producer Rick Rubin was doing with the album.

"Everything’s buzzing,” Billy tells noise11.com. ”I guess the irony of the whole picture is that the band is wondering. Where is this thing? When do we hear it? Rick’s funny. We’ve been friends for as long as I can remember. Triple decades and this is the first time we have broken the mould as business pals”.

He admits Rick has to get the album right before he releases it. "He’s got a somewhat unorthodox way of doing everything that he does including making records but he has a sense of intuition that can’t be beat,” Billy says.
