In December, drummer Tim Alexander revealed that the band had been "in Les’s studio working on stuff for the new year’s show but I don’t know if there are any plans for releasing that." When asked about performing new material during the 2014 Australia tour, he said "looking at [the band's touring schedule], it doesn’t look like there’s going to be any time to write anything new."
The first official Primus show with Tim Alexander back on drums was New Year's Eve 2013 at The Fox Theater in Oakland. For their second set, Primus performed the soundtrack from the 1971 film "Willy Wonka & The Chocolate Factory" in its entirety. The band later announced that a studio recording of the Willy Wonka soundtrack would be released on October 21, 2014 through ATO Records, titled "Primus & The Chocolate Factory With The Fungi Ensemble".
I can’t wait for this even though it’s not really a new album…
Willy Wonka and Primus is a match made in.. something like Limbo.
