Heathrow's second album in first trimester

As far as I'm concerned, and keep in mind I'm the goddamned songwriter, my band's second album is coming along nicely. As far as the writing goes, by my count we're two (STRONG) songs shy of a quality album. Sure, we have at least 15 written, but unlike almost every band on Earth, we want every song to be good. Good enough so that you don't skip any of 'em. It's time, over the next few weeks, to stare the beast dead red in the eye and knock out two hummable hits. But the birth of a killer song is never an easy one...
