10th album rumors and speculation

[tommymtcom]

I heard from a reliable source that this album will come out at the same time as the special edition no code and the PJ20 bootleg.

Im not gonna have the kinda money it will take to get all of that I would have thought after all the cash grabs they have done through the years that the bands dumb ass management would know these things should come out gradually so everyone buys all of it

I don't believe this album is coming out for one second.

At all?

That would really piss me off.

106.9 WCC the local rock station in CT has a segment were the guy who books all the shows in CT(sorry forget his name) gets interviewed about various acts and he said don't expect anything from PJ till mid July as far as announcements for a tour. I imagine any album news would follow or correspond with a tour announcement. They have been doing this segment for years he's normally spot on.

I have to admit, a track titled Coalmine Fucker would do a lot for my anticipatory optimism levels.

Sounds like a Monster Magnet song.

When they first announced the Wrigley & London shows and were like "More tour dates soon!" my first instinct was to think that the tour announcements wouldn't take place till immediately after the Wrigley show in the hopes of possibly riding the press coverage of those shows, but then I thought "Wait, it's like February (or was it January?). There's no way they're gonna say 'More tour dates soon!' and make everyone wait over five months for them to actually come." And yet here we are, and it appears this is exactly what they're gonna do.

This is from Peter King's MMQB, Steve Gleason was guest writing. Saw it in another thred, but thought I'd put it here. Looks like this is close, Gleason has heard some of the new album. No word on whether its a logical extension of Backspacer or a return to form.

4. I think Pearl Jam stands in the top five most significant American rock bands of the past 50 years.

Others I would include, in no particular order, are: The Doors, Van Halen, R.E.M and The Grateful Dead. If we consider individuals like Bob Dylan, Jimi Hendrix and Bruce Springsteen, the list gets mangled. I would replace R.E.M and the Doors with Dylan and Hendrix.

I will be interviewing Pearl Jam to discuss their forthcoming album, which is their 10th. The band chose four people they were excited about talking to -- and being interviewed by -- for a series of recorded and filmed discussions focused on the creative process. Somehow I ended up being one of them. Which meant I got to hear some music off the new album. It's sweet, by the way.

How did I end up as one of the interviewers? Ten years ago this April, I met one of the band's guitarists, Mike McCready through a fellow Washington State Cougar athlete, Erica Perkins. Mike and Erica were family friends. I was playing for the Saints and Erica was the head coach of the women's tennis team at Georgia Southern. Mike provided backstage passes for a show in Atlanta, so we hung out with him briefly before and after the show. Mike and I stayed acquaintances over the years, and I attended a few more shows. After my ALS diagnosis, Mike and his wife, Ashley, rallied to support me and my journey. Our families have become quite close, and I met the rest of the band last October for Music Midtown in, coincidentally, Atlanta. Not exactly sure why or how they they chose me, but I am not complaining. thanks Erica for the introduction ... Go Cougs.

'It's sweet, by the way.'

Wow, that's vague.

[bodysnatcher]

Do you think they're going to Atlanta for any work on this album? And if so, will Jeff go?

[Blenheim Augustine]

Wow, that's vague.

I expect he had to sign a non-disclaimer agreement before he was able to hear the album.

At least he didn't say it's crap, or even worse - a logical extension of Backspacer.
