I don't think his "vocals" need to be on form. He is intelligent enough to be able to tell us a story, instead, and it would work, because he has the ability to do so, and singing might be a smaller part of it, but the story would still stand up ... he knows how to work lyrics and words, so this should not be a problem.
But, I think that we might hear a bit more flute than before, to give his vocal chords a better rest and use, specially for the stage, if indeed he returns to it, which I think he will ... how is the issue!

A folk-prog-metal hybrid sure sounds like Tull to me, but then I have been asking myself for the last year why TAAB2 is not a Tull album. Either way, being the long-time Tull-skull I am, I am definitely looking forward to it.

Oh please, the prog metal/folk is an obvious overstatement.
It's like Mumford and Sons saying Babel was going to be a darker Sabbath mixed with Nick Drake.

Now, now, Austin. Remember that you're talking about the only band that has won a Grammy for Best Hard Rock/Metal Performance Vocal or Instrumental here.
