(Sorry, no release date or tracklist yet!)
Uematsu has stated several times that TBM3 was being worked on this year (and I believe he expected it to be released by year's end, as well), but until now there's been no other details available.
This interview surfaced the other day at the Soundtrack Central boards, courtesy of Godai. Relevant bits:

G wie Gorilla: How is your band 'The Black Mages' doing?
Uematsu: We are currently planning our third album.

G wie Gorilla: What sort of music will be on the new Black Mages-Album?
Uematsu: This time, we will release a double album. The first CD will contain the usual arranged Final Fantasy themes. But the second disc will be something new. We're trying to represent old japanese folk tales in terms of music.

Interesting! It sounds like the second disc will be something not previously attempted in VGM - merging what I suppose would be classical Japanese music with TBM's usual rock style. I just hope the FF side of the album doesn't suffer from having the band's attention divided.
(EDIT: Uh, I guess I need postcount++ before I can post a URL. That's mildly retarded, but okay - if you want to read the full interview, go to the Soundtrack Central boards and look at the first page of the "Game" forum.)
Jam it back in, in the dark.
