All testosterone, these men of Alberta Cross, despite what one of the local rags says (surprisingly, it wasn’t Petric that made the mistake). Early this year, at SXSW, I stumbled into a day party at the Red-Eyed Fly and while waiting for the band I wanted to see (I think it was Rumspringa) play on the [...]

By: David SchultzWe're going to stay with the Pearl Jam theme for one more day. Earlier this week, Soundgarden's Chris Cornell joined up with his Seattle brethren to recreate Temple Of The Dog, the band they formed to eulogize Andrew Wood, whose untimely death derailed Mother Love Bone in its infancy but opened the door for Eddie Vedder to be brought into the fold and Pearl Jam to emerge. At the

The audio isn’t so hot but the new Pearl Jam video that popped up online this week gives a sneak preview of what’s to come on the band’s upcoming Backspacer album. I don’t know – maybe it’s because I’ve been on a big Mother Love Bone kick lately – but I just haven’t felt the Pearl [...]
