I'm happy for them. First one since No Code.

It sold less than Binarual and Avocado in the first week but didn't have anything major released against it I guess.

    yeah but that article says that "Pearl Jam is POISED for the #1 album" and "Industry prognosticators SUGGEST the band's new "Backspacer," COULD shift anywhere between 175,000 to 200,000 copies by week's end." This article is tellin' ya it happened.

    I can't open that link. How many did they end up selling? It's not even Saturday yet...that would be a full week.

    Pearl Jam Headed To No. 1
    September 25, 2009 5:40 EDT

    In Friday's Daily Noise, brought to you by Fuse and Billboard.com, Pearl Jam is poised to score their first No. 1 album on the Billboard 200 in 13 years when the charts post next Thursday. "Backspacer," which the band released independently, is on track to sell just under 200,000 copies in its first week.
