The Quilt will be the fourth album by Gym Class Heroes released by Fueled By Ramen/Decaydance, as announced on Travis' blog. The album will be released in early fall, despite an official date set for July 15.

Clips from the album, dubbed by Travis as "patches", have also been posted on said blog.

To top up their next album after the relatively successful As Cruel as School Children, Gym Class Heroes have demanded Ne-Yo, Arctic Monkeys' Alex Turner and soul rock singer Daryl Hall.

Frontman Travis McCoy told MTV, "This is me reaching out right now, but we're hoping to get Alex Turner from the Arctic Monkeys on the record, Daryl Hall on the record. And we're looking forward to writing a couple of songs with Ne-Yo. We got to be good friends with him through the VMAs (MTV Video Music Awards)."[citation needed]

The band has recorded some tracks with producers Cool & Dre as well as Busta Rhymes and Lil' Wayne.[citation needed] They revealed that the song will make a good kind of surprise. "It's just gonna be a real, real solid record. The demos we have now are just bananas," McCoy added. "(Guitarist) Disashi is just a monster on the new stuff. You're going to hear a lot more of him singing on this one and a lot more of his guitar skills that I don't think he really got to flex on the last record."
