You know what's rare in music?
When a band hasn't released an album for six years, and hasn't had a hit in 9 years, shows back up, and people pay attention. Most times, bands are forgotten if they are out of the spotlight for that long. Not Third Eye Blind.
We first started hearing trickles of new music from 3EB in late 2008, as they digitally released an EP, gearing up for the full-album release (coming in August.) Their song "Non-Dairy Creamer" sparked some radio airplay, amidst curiosity, and some controversy over it's lyrics. Now the band prepares to release "Ursa Major" on August 18th, and says an album "Ursa Minor" will also hit stores eventually.
If I read the info correctly, the band is on their own label, with distribution through Sony RED, much like how Better Than Ezra released their last album, "Paper Empire."
From "Ursa Major," it's Third Eye Blind, with "Don't Believe a Word."
