"Pearl Jam have confirmed that their upcoming album will include a partnership with US retailer Target. The LP - rumoured to be titled Backspacer - will be released without a major US label, Billboard reports. Target will serve as the &amp;quot;big box&amp;quot; retailer for the album, with other collaborations in the works for an exclusive online retailer, a mobile partner, a gaming company and a network of independent music stores. &amp;quot;Target ended up allowing us to have other partners. We&amp;#039;ll be able to take care of all levels of the Pearl Jam fan,&amp;quot; the band&amp;#039;s manager, Kelly Curtis said.  Curtis added: &amp;quot;Target was cool enough to realise that independent record stores are not their competition.&amp;quot;  The record will be Pearl Jam&amp;#039;s first away from a Sony record label in their 18-year history.
