Pearl Jam’s new album, Backspacer, it set to be released on September 20th. In typical Pearl Jam fashion, the band has decided to market their album the way they want to. The artwork for the album hit the internet, but not in full form. You see, Pearl Jam made it a puzzle for fans; making them hunt around the internet to piece together the album cover. Fans would come across pieces of the cover at various websites, such as this installment at the Rolling Stone sight. By clicking on the piece of art work, your browser would take you to the official Pearl Jam website and begin putting the cover together.
If you want to piece together the art yourself, here’s a hint: The pieces are all on music and big name sites.
If you want to cheat, here’s a link for the pieces.

I love that they did this! I actually found most of them online last week by fluke.
