He knew it was going to be at least a year before R2 came out. We'll be lucky to have it by the end of 2010.
What are you talking about man.
He originally did Relapse 1 and 2 in the same session. That's why there was gonna be two because he had so much material they were gonna split it into two albums.
Then (probably due to the reaction of R1) - He changed direction a few times and has been working on the album since. With a totally different mindset, now looking to make the 'perfect' album.
Originally R2 was done, the material was all done. Those 'shitty' tracks as you call them were original R2 tracks that he put on Refill to hold fans over until he puts R2 out since he knew people were expecting more new material in 09.
I don't know how you can call "Elevator" and "Buffalo Bill" shitty. They're class.
