Take a guess...

I'll say early September. Hopefully earlier than that, though.

    I think it will leak about a month out. I'm waiting for the c.d. though. Nothing better than popping in the c.d. for the first time and letting the tracks roll.

    Its hard too say. 2 weeks is pretty common, but this album has been completed months before its release date. The longer there is a gap between the completion of an album and its release date, the more likely it gets leaked earlier. Someone kid who works at the plant that makes cd's sneaks home a copy... review copies get sent out early.. etc..

    I think yield was the first pearl jam album i saw leaked year and that was in the early days of mp3 (before it caught on to the masses).

    I'm still going to go with 2 weeks though. Pearl Jam is doing everything through their own camp, it probably reduces the likelihood of an earlier leak.

    once this album gets in the hands of the $50,000 a year Target executives, its going to be all over
  • PJammin'PJammin' Posts: 1,902
    don't care. i'll wait until i get my album from the ten club.

    leaks are for sissies.

    Wow, I can't tell you how much I hope people have self-control and do not leak it. There are a lot of talented people working hard on presentation for everyone and to have someone take that away from them is a real buzzkill. The events leading up to it and the excitement of a release day party atmosphere pretty much fizzles away into a semi-nothing day for many instead of a special and exciting party day for all...everyone together, you know?

    And then there are other things that I don't even want to think about because it's just no fun at all and takes away from everything. :(

    I like to join with everyone else in the anticipation and the party that goes along with a new release. This journey we're on for a new album only comes every few years. If I had it, I wouldn't be playing it until Sept. 20 so I can come to the party.

    I've been enjoying the songs we've been given...have always loved the lyric discussions going way back to the Pearl Jam Lyrics folder on AOL. I can still remember the day someone figured out the word "accumulating" in Breath. :) It was great, ha.

    i'm actually quite content to listen to what i've heard so far (Got Some, Fixer) until the record is out. when it arrives at my house, i'll play the hell out of it for 2 1/2 weeks to get ready for ACL!! 8-)
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    What does this mean...

    That would mean the unfortunate circumstances that
    would result from the album leaking earlier than it is
    supposed to be out.
    Some Ten Club members will get banned for pointing out
    where to find download links.Happens every album.

    Trust me,i should know.Do not pm anyone on here who asks where
    they can download the album from.It could be a setup AND could have
    you banned for life if you tell them where you can find it.
    TRUST ME PEOPLE !!!!!!!!! DONT DO IT!
    Dont say i didnt forewarn you all ;(
    It is taking money from the band,plain and simple.
    It doesnt matter if you have already pre-purchased the album.
    That still doesnt make it legal to STEAL it early,just because you
    already bought it.

    Thats the mentality that people have nowdays.That as long as i
    have already paid for it,then it automatically gives me a license
    to download it early.
    The problem is,is that you are contributing by helping to spread the
    torrent for others to STEAL it.

    Sure,the person who first uploads the files should be vilified,but
    is instead,thanked profusely for giving the WORLD early access
    to something that no one has any more patience to wait for,like
    KATsaid so eloquently.

    Just look at it this way....................what do you all think would have
    happened if computers were around back in the 50's & 60's when rock and roll
    bands were first starting out? Would we still have had Elvis,The Beatles,
    The Stones or The Who? Would they have had as long of career's as they
    have had,if people were able to steal all of their music from them,thus
    making it that much harder to survive in such a tough break industry?
    Possibly,from touring and merchandising alone.
    But for smaller bands,stealing their music,that they had to pay for
    themselves to create(by paying for studio time),is just outright wrong.
    We will be robbed in the long run,by these bands folding up and
    ceasing to exist anymore,due to lack of funds,therefore robbing us
    of much more kick arse music in the future.
  • The second I bought the lp I stopped thinking about the leak. Didn't see the S/T leak, but I did get Riot Act early and it just wasn't the same experience. I want the lp bursting loud with the artwork in my hands on this one. The total package seems special this time around.

    I hate it when albums leak, but on the other hand I hate even more going to see a band play lots of new material knowing no one will know any of it! At the Astoria show they played lots of the selftitled songs, and I only knew the lyrics because of the leaked album. Out of the shows I've been to I've only ever seen Army Reserve at the Astoria, so without the leaked album that would have been a wasted moment. I'd like to hear the new stuff before the euro tour to be honest, I'll still buy the album.

    A few weeks back I was saying mid-August, but looking at how well The Fixer was controlled, I'm now thinking it may not be until 2 weeks before the release...so early to mid-September. It seems they have much more control over leaks and what not now that they are self-releasing (i.e., no label). I will admit, I'll listen to a leak if it's album quality (or around 256 kbps) - anything less, no thanks. I've already ordered a nice, juicy copy from 10C.
