Pearl Jam's "Fixer" Gets An All-Star Preview Backspacer's first single hits radio and retail on Monday -- and a Target commercial shortly thereafter -- but baseball fans heard a teaser on last night All-Star Game broadcast. This blog has MP3s. Elsewhere pearljam.com has the 7" for sale, and the LP tracklist.

i am almost sure that all 10 seconds of this song are better than anything on their last release.

Grace, I previewed the album, and you are right, the Fixer is really good stuff, the album is only 36 minutes, it is perfect. The last one with the exception of Parachutes is bush league.

Hey Sugar Tits (wow, I feel dirty calling you that),
You mention that you've heard the entire album. Care to elaborate?
(btw, I'm the guy whose blog is linked)

I dunno, it kind of sounds like Worldwide Suicide. Granted, it is only a few seconds, obscured by some baseball guy talking over it, but it doesn't sound miles away from the band's sound or anything epic and life-changing. I'm still looking forward to the new record though.
