    was a huge PJ fan back in the days of Ten but the later albums never really did it for me. That said Pearl Jam live in Millstreet was best gig I've ever been to, closely followed by Audioslave in the point (hmmm ok its a tie).

    Any Ten fans out there should also check out soundgarden's album Superunknown also the band Live's album Throwing Copper - both on a par with ten. All from same era Seattle Grunge. Great stuff.

    The new Pearl Jam album

    I'm sat in a PR's hotel room at The Edgewater listening to the new Pearl Jam record - a release form I've just signed means that I can't tell you the song titles, while it doesn't even have a name yet. Yet what I can tell you, it's that it's ever, ever so punchy. Eddies vocals sound more honeyed than raspy and there's a ballad stuck right in the middle that's just him and a guitar, but is absolutely drenched in strings. There's hardly any guitar leads either - personally I'm a fan of that anti-alt-rock thing* and I'd like to see them bust some more of that stuff out. But as collections of garage-y rock go, it's not like you miss them...

    ( *What I mean by that, is that I never cared much about all the accusations that Pearl Jam were corporate cock rock - I always liked them because they were corporate cock rock (not that a band who've spent all but two of their years trying to sabotage their status as one of the biggest rock bands on the face of the planet could be described thus anymore). Just as some of my favourite music is righteous indie rock - Fugazi, Beat Happening, Bikini Kill - some of my favourite music - AC/DC, Rage Against The Machine, Guns 'N Roses - is corporate cock rock. It's a genre I most definitely enjoy...)

    Y'know, it's hard to make sense of records when you've only heard them once, and the view from the hotel window (sea, seabirds, boats and far off mountains) is kinda distracting - I wonder what it'll sound like on a wet, ****ty morning in east London? But while I'd like to hear it again - aye, first impressions are promising.

    I don't believe it's real. Firstly, why would this one guy get to hear it, and no one else (if not review it, at least mention they heard it)? Secondly, most of the review is his own view on 'anti-alt-rock'. Thirdly, he talks about being distracted by what's out the window.

    Good news!
    dunno if it's ben posted but the tonight show is available in Ireland on NTL channel 204! means we'll see the Pj lads on June 2nd or possibly 3rd as it's a day or 2 late of the American broadcast.
    hope this helps...

    Also-the 'review' was very real..he's an editor for NME and also, 10c or Pj management had him take the blog down it seems 'cos it's gone..

    Just in case any other collectors havent seen, some of the past fan club singles are up for sale in the goods section (95, 99, 03, 04, 06, 07). Free, but $7 shipping for each and must be got seperately! Picked me up 95-03 this evening while having another shopping binge over there!!

    Couldn't really afford them, so I only bought '99 (it being my favourite Christmas single). I like the 10C email which says orders should be received in 4-5 days, or 4-7 weeks international :p

    anyone else into pearl jam here? been into them from the beginning and i celebrate their whole catalog. eddie's solo into the wild soundtrack was brilliant too. just wanted to see if anyone else out there is a huge fan. supposedly working on their new album now...its been 3 years...way overdue. cant wait to see what they put out this time. one of the things i love about pearl jam is their ability to be diverse and change with the times. ive seen them about 10 times in concert and you cannot beat it for the money and amount of songs they play.

    seen them in the point in 03 i think it was best gig i seen in years played for over 2 hours,acording to this months classic rock they are playing 2 gigs in london in august so we might see them on our side of the water with a new album fingers crossed

    A lot of people on 10C are thinking that this is a taster for a new single or even the whole album the day after. that would be too sweet! :cool:

    Ya, does sound good, but im gonna reserve judgement until I hear a clear version next week presumably! This whole craic with Target seems a bit odd, obviously if they are using them for distribution it makes a bit more sense.

    For anyone who wants to hear the audience recording head on over to antiquiet.com. (After being registered here now for a few years im still not sure if posting links is ok :rolleyes:)
