Ted Leo snuck a recording update into the Tour Diary he posted to his website in late April. Leo has been "in the basement" writing songs for the followup to Hearts Of Oak. Recording was to start in 3 weeks from his post, so by late May the band should be in the studio. Leo's reported that he and the Pharmacists are averaging 3 songs a night, the results of which you should be able to hear when the record comes out in October.
