10th album rumors and speculation

[B]

I don't know ... I think there is very little overlap btw "obsessive collectors" and "insiders." I think this dude is full of it.

According to reports, Pearl Jam will release their new single, believed to be called "Mind Your Manners", on July 16.

Sources who have claimed to have heard the song describe it as a lot like "Spin The Black Circle", which was the first single from the cracking third studio album, Vitalogy (1994).

The new Pearl Jam single is out in July and we'll have it first. While the album is being reported for an October release (leaked track listing below).
Tracklisting

1. Revolution Reruns (3:36)
2. Kickstop (2:14)
3. Vivid Futures (3:58)
4. Mind Your Manners (3:08)
5. The Undertow (4:04)
6. Red (3:23)
7. Of The Earth (6:15)
8. Tracking Change (4:21)
9. Uncharted Terrain (3:59)
10. Foliage (2:16)
11. Derision (3:32)
12. Sans Finis (7:12)


Pearl Jam have almost finished work on their 10th studio album with producer Brendan O’Brien, says guitarist Stone Gossard.

"It's almost done and it sounds like Pearl Jam. You’re going to hear some rock songs and you’re going to hear some quiet songs and you’ll hear some song in between," he told Guerrillacandy.com.

"That’s all I can really say about it because we aren’t talking about it yet, so it doesn’t make much sense for me to say anything."

This follows PJ's Mike McCready who last month described some of the tracks as being pretty amazing on the official Pearl Jam Facebook page.

"I think there’s a little bit more experimental stuff going on. There’s a Pink Floyd vibe to some of it, there’s a punk rock edge to other stuff.”

So everyone keeps posting this same rumored tracklist, but it doesn't include the song "Sirens" which is one of the songs supposedly heard by some people.

WHO DO I BELIEVE?

[Dr. Van Nostrand]

i hope Sirens and how its described is real, it sounds like something i will really like from the few words ive read, but i would have loved all the songs on the April fools joke as well, so i guess we will see

AlternativeNation.net reader/contributor PJ has given more thoughts on Pearl Jam’s new track “Sirens” off their upcoming 10th album:
“Ya know some people are gonna be let down by this comparison. Nothing will be like Black. This record isn’t coming out in 1991 and this isn’t the end all be all ballad of unrequited love.
But musically, I have never been taken back by a PJ song on my first listen like this and I love all their songs and am an obsessive bootleg collector. It fits the same mold as Black would if it were to just be released is my point. And yes, Mike McCready is as Dimi has said 1000000 times, God. On this one especially.
Mind Your Manners is an obvious first choice for a single of the four that I heard. The same as Save You, WWS & The Fixer were in retrospect. People like myself and those commenting on the boards about this are gonna eat this shit up regardless of what the single is. The general music listening population doesn’t know shit from roses so you won’t hear this song til October. They could have gone with the Uke song had it not been off Ukelele Songs but Mind Your Manners it the best choice. If you look back at the August 2009 leg they did before Backspacer was released on a Sunday in September, they were only playing The Fixer, Got Some and debuted Supersonic. I would expect the same and you will hear Mind Your Manners and MAYBE that Uke song because it’s not really new at the two July shows coming up.
Don’t know what else there is to say. Hope you’ve enjoyed what I have had to report but if you’re putting all your expectations in hearing Black 2… you’re for lack of a better saying… really fucking stupid.
Love your PJ. They’re the greatest band ever. Stop being so cynical about them. It is what it is. Matt Cameron is the greatest.
PEACE & you can all buy me beers in Brooklyn.
(Not calling you stupid, Brett. Love the site. Keep it up) ”

This guy heard 4 songs, and he emailed them to me in a 4 song sampler. B, do you want to hear them?

because they probably changed the title of Sans Finis to Sirens, and the extra 2 minutes on the running time is blank space and a little hidden track on it

i should through that out there and see if the rumor gets going

[stupidmop]

If sirens is real/ these people aren't talking out of their asses , it sounds like it could be Mike's ' kinda Pink Floyd thing'.

if its not real, i like their imagination

[broken iris]

Sirens = PJ's 'November Rain'?

[Dr. Van Nostrand]

Sirens = PJ's 'November Rain'?

i think so

[E.H. Ruddock]

At least update the TSIS main page with a new screen shot of the clock every morning.

why only every morning? i think every hour is perfectly reasonable

Mike + 'Kinda Pink Floyd thing' is Inside Job. Which doesn't fill me with hope. Having said that, for some reason I find the idea of an angry punk song followed by an 'epic' song including piano quite interesting. An eclectic album with a lot of different styles might at least be something to chew on while we're deciding whether it's good or not, and inevitably moving towards a time when we'll feel confident that it isn't.

or it means Nothing as it seems?

I'm hopeful for a good epic tune.

I'm most excited about this third song neither want to talk about.

That would be joyous. NAIS isn't as high on my list as it is for some RMers, but it is evidently a good song.

Which i would love

The track lists are bullshit and the supposed reviews are not anything to take seriously, but! For some reason, I think they have a real fucking surprising record ready. I don't expect Binaural, but I think it's going to musically be more in line with where I thought they would go post-Riot Act/Guacamole.

I am so scared.

what did you think they would have done that has you scared? riot act 2?

[stupidmop]

If we started getting 'think binaural' in these song descriptions I'd just about start shitting hot fire myself.

Well the descriptions are making me less bummed about the first single being a super fast rawker thing.
