When this info has been confirmed to be either true or false, it'll be updated here.

Well, the webmaster from boston.org has released the following statement:
I know that everyone is waiting for official information regarding the new album. I hope to have more to tell you shortly. There is a great deal of work going into this release and all of the events surrounding it! It's getting closer! Look for more news soon!
It's looking more likely that the info circulating has some truth to it.

Official word passed on from boston.org webmaster Troy Bartlett:
"BOSTON has plans to tour this summer behind a new album that is about to come out on Artemis Records. The group, or more accurately BOSTON mastermind Tom Scholz, has spent more than two years in a basement studio working on the record. 'We believe they will be touring this summer and fall, but there's no start date yet,' APA Senior VP Troy Blakely told POLLSTAR.
The band last toured in 1997. The three-year-old Artemis Records label, co-founded by former Warner Bros. Records chief Danny Goldberg, reported plans to invest $1 million in marketing and promotion, and to initially ship at least 500,000 copies of the record."

On Tuesday, April 16th, there was another Boston album released. Not the album we expected. This was a compilation album.
It's called More Than a Feeling. If you're familiar with the Rock and Roll Band compilation that was relased 4 years ago, you'll recognize the band picture on the cover; it's the exact same one. That's not the only similarity; not some, but all the songs listed are the same as the Rock and Roll Band disc. Even more so, they are in the exact same order. It's already featured at CDNOW.com, amazon.com and other online retailers selling for around $8.00.
