Pearl Jam to re-release Ten

The debut album by Pearl Jam, Ten, will be reissued in 2009.

So what you may say? But this release will be done in four expanded formats, including the cassette, which should get the die-hard fans something to get excited about.

The recording has been completly remixed by Producer Brendan O’Brien as well as the remastered old version, will be included in the package.

"The band loved the original mix of Ten, but were also interested in what it would sound like if I were to deconstruct and remix it," says producer Brendan O'Brien. "The original Ten sound is what millions of people bought, dug and loved, so I was initially hesitant to mess around with that. After years of persistent nudging from the band, I was able to wrap my head around the idea of offering it as a companion piece to the original ? giving a fresh take on it, a more direct sound."
