ZZ Top’s Billy F. Gibbons says the Texan trio in 2011, before the end of their first studio album since 2003 Mescalero plan to continue. Gibbons told Houston’s Fox 26, shortly before leaving for the band’s summer European tour, “This year’s going to be a banner year on a number of levels, but we’re throwing our hat in the ring”.
Gibbons confirmed that producer Rick Rubin, as yet untitled album, which is now "free tracking" and the mixing board was looking for.
“Rick has successfully brought in his particular piece of magic in offering a few suggestions,” Gibbons said. “Basically he stepped back and said, ‘You don’t have to get much better, just do what you do.’ So that’s what we’ve been up to.” Gibbons also mentioned that tracks so far recorded are “loud and fast” and “a return to the roots.”
Gibbons added, “There’s always that Tex-Mex accompaniment. I wouldn’t be surprised if we lean that direction again.”
