NEW YORK (Billboard) - Although it`s still without a title or track listing, Liz Phair`s new album is in its final recording stages ahead of a fall release.

"This I can tell you: all my sloppiness is in there," the rock singer/songwriter told Billboard. "I fought all the way through, and I`m not letting anyone take it to a perfected style."

The album marks her first release of original material for Dave Matthews` ATO Records, which recently reissued Phair`s 1993 debut, "Exile In Guyville," with extra tracks and a DVD.

"It`s not going to be `(Exile in) Guyville` again, but I`m using all my tools," Phair added. "I keep pulling it out of producers` hands, before they can do anything."

Having split with Capitol earlier this year, Phair is finding that working with ATO is a breath of fresh air.

"They literally look at me and say, `Here`s your budget, don`t go over, bring us something good,"` she says. "It`s a f---ing mind-bending experience after the last 14 years."

Phair has been on the road performing "Exile In Guyville" in its entirety at a handful of shows. She has three "Guyville" gigs next month, and no plans yet for additional shows.
