I think it would be so cool if they did something like the Raconteurs did for their second album. Just released it. no hype. no media. nothing. just a major shock.

can you imagine walking into your local shop one day and seeing the new pearl jam record, without knowing it was coming out?

I think something like this will happen. I said it in an earlier post. I think they are going to drop the single next week and the album much sooner than the speculated October release date. In essence, they will strike while the iron is hot. Having the new album out sooner rather than later will certainly bolster sales for the presumed fall arena tour.

PJ is not afraid to think outside the box when it comes to marketing and they aren't tied down with a record company who releases music in a conventional manner.

I'm predicting an August release date and a tour that begins in September.

My thoughts exactly

That's not an issue at all because of the lottery system. We have a week.

I truly hope you are right. With facebook (7.7 million people linked to it), monkeywrench, and this website they can certaintly pull it off. It is all about distribution in the end, i guess. I remember I made similar statements at the preset of Backspacer and then they came with months before the album was released and Target.

So yeah, I hope that they think out of the box and let word-to-mouth take its course. So far, with a simple countdown, they already made national (let me refer: international) news. No videos or commercials needed these days.

5 days and 18-some hours until they post my 2012 holiday single? :roll:

If they put a countdown on that one, it will be more than 5 days...

true, this countdown is gaining some serious momentum. I've had two friends who are not really PJ fans ask me about this because they know it is my favorite band.

Has the documentary called "Countdown to Zero" been mentioned in this thread? Because there is one, and "The Fixer" was on the soundtrack. :think:

From wikipedia:
"Countdown to Zero is a documentary film released in 2010 which argues that the likelihood of the use of nuclear weapons has increased since the end of the Cold War due to terrorism, nuclear proliferation, theft of nuclear materials and weapons, and other factors.[1][3]..... The musical score was composed by Peter Golub, and the rock band Pearl Jam contributed the song "The Fixer."[2]

CONSPIRACY!


:P

Bergfall

It's a reissue of Benaroya in Greying-Beard color (got my first this winter, hey we're getting old!)

No....probably just splitting up..

I wanna know how come they always do this stuff a Monday and make us wait all damn weekend for the final end of the countdown/big wait.

I mean, not that I'm complaining...maybe better for a Monday to brighten up everyone's return to work? :?:

why not release Setting Forth w/band from his Into The Wild record on the new PJ album?

That would be awesome.

Someone text me with the news next week yeah?

I think this is going to be a video of them playing Mind Your Manners and an album anouncement with presales for ltd edition packages starting at that moment.
I'd feel let down if all this noise and countdown stuff is just going to be a tour or album anouncement.

Would be cool though if it is a surprise albumrelease.

Ok sure it's going to be new single released, album release date, WORLD tour announcement..Which means not just America...they need to get back down under..I'm going out of my mind I haven't seen them in concert since 10th March 1995....It's gotta be my time soon
