I haven’t quite decided whether I am excited about the release of Pearl Jam’s Backspacer or not. They really haven’t wet my whistle for quite some time now. This doesn’t mean that I’m not going to give it a fair shake come September 22nd but as of now I have a mild interest on what these aging grunge rockers still have left in them.

Here are two tracks from the upcoming release that display both ends of the Pearl Jam spectrum. “Got Some” is in your face Pearl Jam, upbeat and strong chorus while “Just Breathe” has Vedder putting his heart on his sleeve in this acoustic track.

Pearl Jam – “Just Breathe” (This was no big surprise)
