Pearl Jam’s new single the Fixer is the 1st single of the new studio album ‘Backspacer’ due out on the 20th of September. The band is also playing some dates in the US and in Europe in support of it.
Not much else is know of this release but the band played the 1st Tonight Show with Conan Obrien, playing a song called “Got Some”, which I highly recommend. It is a song of energy and emotion- Pearl Jam’s calling card in their earlier days.
As a side note, Pearl Jam re-released their epic 1st record titled ‘Ten’ with new masters of the songs done by famed producer Brenden O’brien, who has done many of their records including the new one mentioned above. As additional incentive, Pearl Jam added other takes from the Ten sessions to the re-release. This record is one of the greatest rock records I have ever heard, and the new masters are good versions- take a listen if you’re a fan of the style.
