"Speculation is increasing that Pearl Jam will release a single from their long-awaited tenth album on July 16. Industry listing site AllAccess.com listed a song called Mind Your Manners for launch on that date, but later removed it. Guitarist Mike McCready recently said the follow-up to 2009′s Backspacer was nearly finished and would be released this year “for sure.” [GrungeReport]"

Southern rock band He Is Legend have just released an update regarding their long (what seemed to be) hiatus, and their plans for the future in an open letter addressed to fans, in which they announced their new drummer Sam Huff. 

"After hashing through drummers via craigslist, methadone clinics, christianmingle.com, and drummers we knew we came upon an acquaintance of ours, Sam Huff, who happened to be working on a pit crew for NASCAR at the time. Within 15 minutes of rehearsing one of our newer ideas with Sam we realized that he was the perfect person for the position."
