I was about to post the same thing on here; isn't it weird to anyone else that the album title is the same as a song title from an album he released nearly a decade ago? Maybe he's referencing that song (which was even a single, with a cool video) because this is harkening back to the Supreme sound -- maybe using songs from that era?
What is probably most likely is something Beefheart and Zappa did.. forging some kind of thematic continuity between their latest work and older works. Zappa would constantly reuse lyrics from older songs in newer compositions -- reuse riffs, and namedrop old song/album titles in new stuff. Beefheart... let's see.. the song "Safe as Milk" wasn't on the album Safe as Milk -- the song "Dirty Blue Gene" was on Doc at the Radar Station said, "THE SHINY BEAST OF THOUGHT!"... but wasn't on Shiny Beast, the album (not even the original version of the album, before they re-recorded it as Bat Chain Puller). And there's a few more instances of this that aren't clicking with me at the moment, but take my word for it hhah.
Anyway, can't wait for this, been on a big Fish Scale/More Fish kick lately.
