I hope they go in a different direction.
Re-recording vocals takes both time and care. An abundance of one with a complete lack of the other is the world we live in.dprival78 wrote:for as much as these guys (eddie) love stackin' those dollas.. how have they not at least put out another b-side album during this dry period?
it's an obvious win-win for everyone, no? band makes money, we get music - and, since it's music that would have been written years ago, it's probably pretty good.

idiot fans literally spend hundreds of dollars on pearl jam stickers and trading cards. you don't think that the gullible jamily wouldn't spend a 1000x that for a hastily thrown together shitty album that the band puts out on its own (or exclusively through target)?theplatypus wrote:How much money is there in releasing albums nowadays?dprival78 wrote:for as much as these guys (eddie) love stackin' those dollas.. how have they not at least put out another b-side album during this dry period?

Serious question, not snark. Would a release like this represent a significant cash injection for the band? Or do all the associated costs make it negligible?
I imagine this would be a more straightforward question to answer if it was an album of newly recorded material
