Over twenty years since their inception, Seattle-formed band Pearl Jam has released nine albums and are currently working on their tenth. Fans have been waiting patiently for the new album and in an interview, guitarist Stone Gossard gave a little hint to what the new sound would be like.
The Pearl Jam guitarist said that the band’s newest endeavors are a definite move away from 2009′s Backspacer.
“We’re always picking away at this new record,” Gossard said. “We’re plugging along, and it’s taking shape. It’s pretty exciting. Trying not to recreate Backspacer is one of the things we want to do. We want to make sure we’re not just locking ourselves in. We want to keep expanding our horizons. We’re still writing, and what it’s going to be is still up in the air.”
The band recently rescheduled a fifteen city, twenty-two show tour after frontman Eddie Vedder announced that he was temporary nerve damage in his right arm that was prompted from a back injury earlier this year.
