10th album rumors and speculation

[Heathen]

the music is kinda cool in that vid

Countdown to a fucking tour announcement? What is the next countdown till? New Eddie Vedder cup designs? Another special appearance at the 2014 Oracle conference?

[stip]

the two song clips both sounded really cool. That haunting background thing especially. I really hope those are on the record.

I'm pretty pissed. But this is funny.

I haven't seen buildup extinguished that quickly since Kenny Powers started making out with April.

Spokane, WA
I googled it.

If the songs on the annoucement videos are from the new album... Well... something good is coming.

They sound nice and moody. But why the hell is Matt playing the ride cymbal on a song that heavy?

Haha. Derp.

Definitely single news if not album.

Hit the latter part of the new video for a hint of the song I suspect.

Sounds really good to these ears.

im 99% certain this will be some rare instrumental they threw together in five minutes, sounds awesome, and will never appear on an album.

It's probably the soundtrack stuff Mike's being working on - or just the sound of collective disappointment in G major.

A General Admission "Pit" at every show.

This is the one thing I liked about this announcement. I much prefer GA to seats.

kinda makes you wonder why people pay fanclub dues...

I guess you're right

[stip]

I kinda like the countdown to new information gimmick they have, to be honest. But this was a disappointing way to begin it. They had to know that this would be disappointing.

[harmless]

why people are surprised pearl jam continues to disappoint is beyond me

I don't think anyone's surprised, but still we're going to get people saying this over and over again, which will eventually be more annoying than the tour announcement.

[stip]

i really really hope the next countdown is not for the overseas dates...

I believe in nothing now

Because of the countdown clock and the buildup, this is going to be big. Not even Bierman will screw this one up.

Yeah..I think you are right for the first part. The section where it ramps up sounds to me like we are going to hear it again

[Thejambi]

The countdown clock has reset to 3 days. I don't really give a shit. I don't think it'll be an album announcement. Why would they announce the album *after* the tour? It just goes to show their priorities, doesn't it?

With the caveat that this still felt like a pretty huge letdown, my guess is that they had to go with the tour first because some sites are already doing on sale stuff for the shows (so they need the announcement) and to also stream a song might be too taxing on the site.

That's my charitable interpretation.

Soundcloud, Spotify hell even throw it up in MySpace.

Hang on .... I'm giving the tour discussion it's own thread. I'll unlock in a few moments.

Nevermind. It's all bitching about the countdown. No one has said anything about the tour.

Put in for reserved seats at both charlottesville and charlotte, and now we get 3 more days to speculate on the album
