edited September 2013 in The Porch
I'm sure it is the first of many magazine reviews but I thought some people might be interested in this.
It is in November's edition of Q Magazine, due to hit shops in the UK on Tuesday (I get early copies).
(I hope you can zoom in on the pics)

    "Pearl Jam won't ever change up their alt-rock sound".... What's with all these fucking idiot music journalists? Oh wait, they've always been there.

    Thanks for posting! I like the picture. Wish I could read the whole review.

    I hate when a review focuses on the band's past before getting to the current music. Its a review of the album, not the band.

    If you're on fb, various people have shared my photo and you can zoom in on the photo and read the review.

    LB doesnt sound REM to me. Its definitely a continuation of the Backspacer sound.... a mixture of "Force of Nature"(lyrics/theme), "Amongst the Waves" and some " Unthought Known".
    And so you see, I have come to doubt
    All that I once held as true
    I stand alone without beliefs
    The only truth I know is you.

    If you click on the photos that dottles has in her initial post then it should open up to photobucket which you can then zoom from there. I too was intrigued by that logo.

    Who cares about Q? We all know the only critics that count are from Pitchfork ; )
