“The “Super Deluxe” Ten reissue was an ornate tombstone for a dead era. “The Fixer” is an Irish wake.”

Pearl Jam’s brilliant new single, brought to you by Target. - By Jonah Weiner - Slate Magazine (via desnoise)
Believe it or not, I actually haven’t heard “The Fixer.” I heard the song they played on Conan’s first show (cool song, awful live mix), but haven’t heard anything else yet. I’m in a weird “I’ll wait until it comes out” phase not because I’m opposed to leaks/torrents/etc, but because I’m so backlogged in music that I’m not chomping at the bit to hear new things.
Anyway, I digress. I loved this quote.
