Pearl Jam Takes Out Its Aggression On New Album
Pearl Jam's Eddie Vedder

March 03, 2006, 4:25 PM ET

Jonathan Cohen, N.Y.
Pearl Jam wears its emotions on its sleeve on its self-titled eighth album, which, as previously reported, will be released May 2 via J Records. Material for the 13-track set took shape in the wake of President George W. Bush's re-election as well as the United States' invasion of Iraq, the third anniversary of which is quickly approaching.

"It's understandable why someone would like their entertainment to provide an escape from modern day worries and the reality of war," Pearl Jam lead singer Eddie Vedder tells Billboard.com. "We feel this record creates a healthy opportunity to process some of these emotions rather than deny them."

"It's like we took our aggressions and shaped something positive from them in a very direct manner," Vedder adds in a message on Pearl Jam's Web site, noting that after more than 15 years together, Pearl Jam feels re-energized by the new album. "Our band is like an old car, and this record is our new engine."

Two tracks have already been debuted live: "Comatose," which was previously known as "Crapshoot Rapture," is a fast, punkish rocker in the vein of "Spin the Black Circle," while Vedder's "Gone" was unveiled last fall during a show in Atlantic City, N.J. His solo demo of the song was recently included on Pearl Jam's annual holiday single for members of its Ten Club fan organization.

In a move that is unprecedented for a band of its stature, Pearl Jam is giving away a free MP3 of first single "World Wide Suicide" via its Web site, simultaneous with its Tuesday (March 8) release to U.S. rock radio outlets. Also expected in the next week is an announcement about Pearl Jam's 2006 touring plans.

Here is the track list for "Pearl Jam":

"Life Wasted"
"World Wide Suicide"
"Comatose"
"Severed Hand"
"Marker in the Sand"
"Parachutes"
"Unemployable"
"Big Wave"
"Gone"
"Wasted Reprise"
"Army Reserve"
"Come Back"
"Inside Job"

Wow, some great stuff there. I haven't been this excited over an album release in awhile, it sounds like its going to be a great album. And a new tour to boot, this year just got a whole lot better.

What are the chances they will come back to London, Kitchener and places like that? Probably slim, that seemed like a one-off type deal, this will most likely be a big arena type tour. I'm hopeful they will come back to London, we can get around 10,000 in the JLC and hopefully it will be considered again. Im so glad I joined the fan club last year, I can't wait to see them live again.

Thanks for the great info. :thumb:

It's also looking like they're slowly unwrapping the actual cover for the new album. The top right corner's torn on the picture now.

I hope the rest of the album is this good, I'm really loving this new tune. :thumb:
