LEGENDS OF ROCK and slightly-more-middling-than-their-counterparts Pearl Jam are to release their new album, Backspacer in September.
The album - the band's ninth studio album - is to be released on September 21 through Universal/Island, their first with that particular label.
Fans of Pearl Jam will remember the reissue of the "seminal" Ten earlier this year. People who aren't fans of Pearl Jam probably won't remember that particular release.
The band chose to go back to working with Brendan O'Brien for Backspacer, and it will be O'Brien's sixth record with the band with Vs., Yield and No Code among the others.
Some of his other, more recent, work includes Mastodon's Crack The Skye and Working On A Dream by The Boss.
If you fancy going for the whole stadium-rock shtick, you can catch Pearl Jam in Europe on these dates:
August
13 - Rotterdam, Sportspaleis Ahoy
15 - Berlin, Wuhlheide
17 - Manchester, MEN Arena
18 - London, O2 Arena
If you do, it might sound something like this. But possibly not.

That PinkPop '92 show looks immense

It just looks like Mr Vedder is struggling to comprehend yet is in ecstatic about where he is and what's going on... nice.
why?
that Pearl Jam hate, Luke?
Didn't sense the hate
but a touch of disrespect, which me no like.
What with this and me not recognising *any* album reviews means is that DIS is becoming less relevant to me nowadays. Shame!
Eddie Vedder
...looks really orange in that pic. I worry he's been eating too many carrots.
Trying to rack up those indie points, are we?
"Yeah, Pearl Jam are so,like, irrelevant... *snort* stadium rock *snigger* dinosaurs *guffaw*".
SLIGHTLY MORE MIDDLING THAN THEIR COUNTERPARTS?
Oh Luke. What does that even mean? I'm going to tweak your beard next time I see you. While screaming "SPIN, SPIN, SPIN THE BLACK CIRCLE"
the fact that this chump
put a a festival performance of 'Alive' in his article showcases his lack of experience
I look forward to it. Though my beard is kinda long at the moment...
...so it could be a painful experience.
not as painful
as the pain Eddie FEELS EVERY DAY FOR THE WORLD.
I am unabashedly excited about Backspacer, as I am about all Pearl Jam records.
Being still quite drunk, I have knocked up a short Spotify playlist of Pearl Jam's more awesome moments. I think you should listen to it, Luke. Listen to it and think about what you've done. Listen to it and share Eddie's INTEGRITY.
Is it one song long?
WINK
