Pearl Jam: Backspacer
Things are revving up for Pearl Jam's new record, apparently titled Backspacer and due for release later this year. The band performed new music on the newly organised Tonight Show last night (now with added Conan O'Brien).
In a strange twist, the anti-corporate rockers are distributing the album through Target Supermarkets in the US, and have even filmed a TV spot with Cameron Crowe directing - although that is also rumoured to be part of a long-form documentary that Crowe is directing for the bands 20th anniversary next year.
Bonus: Jeff Ament interview over at Two Feet Thick.
