Back in May of 2009, Pearl Jam played a secret show at Seattle’s Showbox which was captured on film by director Cameron Crowe. Now, as the release date for Pearl Jam’s ninth album draws near, the results of that night’s show have been revealed in the video for the new LP’s first single “The Fixer.” Check out the video below.
Making use of large video screens simultaneously projecting the band performing and the audience, “The Fixer” is reminiscent of other old-school in-concert Pearl Jam videos like “Alive” and “Evenflow.”
The album is scheduled to hit the streets on September 20th exclusively via Target stores, which will have the exclusive mass retail rights to the album. However, Pearl Jam’s Ten Club and independent record stores will also be carrying the album on that date.
Tracklisting:
1. “Gonna See My Friend”
2. “Got Some”
3. “The Fixer”
4. “Johnny Guitar”
5. “Just Breathe”
6. “Amongst The Waves”
7. “Unthought Known”

When Conan O’Brien reboots The Tonight Show on June 1st, he will be calling upon legendary rockers Pearl Jam to serve as his first musical guest. According to the post on the band’s official site, Eddie Vedder and company will perform songs from their upcoming ninth studio album. Conan’s highly anticipated premiere will also feature funnyman Will Ferrell as a guest.
Rolling Stone reports that Pearl Jam is close to hitting the studio to lay down an album they plan to self-release in the U.S. without a label. The new record feels good so far really strong and uptempo, stuff we can sink our teeth into, Vedder told RS Brian Hiatt when he sat in on the bands Seattle rehearsals for an in-depth look at the upcoming record read the full story in the new issue, on newsstands now.
Pearl Jam are also busy readying the deluxe reissue of their 1991 debut, Ten, which his stores March 24th in four editions. When the album came out, David Fricke directed listeners to focus on Vedders voice: a ragged, enraged mongrel blend of Robert Plant and James Hetfield and the Pearls surprising, and refreshing, melodic restraint.
