Excellent summary, thank you!
Going by the above timeline then I guess: album title in October, tracklist/artwork in Nov, single in Dec and album release in Jan.

It sounds like, "ruk, ruk, ruk, ruk, ruk." Instead of the more pleasing kick drum sound of, "gzarruk, gzarruk, gzarruk, gzarruk."

From a Mega Man Legends island jamming power metal to a Walrus listening to black metal, I like your story arc.
Holy crap please please please call the album "Making History." Then embark on a worldwide tour called the "... And You? Tour"

At first I thought he just finished vocals today, but now I see it more as a “just to let you know that I already finished my vocals for the album” post, and he’s just hyping things up. Either way, I just want them to start mixing the album very soon

Wonder why we didn’t get any pics or anything of him recording. He’s been completely under wraps from the other guys. I know he likes privacy while he does his thing, but still lol

The guy they've got engineering this album, James Meslin, is great. Really hope they get him to mix the record too. I've just been checking out some of the stuff he's done on his website/Soundcloud - https://www.jamesmeslinaudio.com/ Sounds fantastic.
