Bassist Jeff Ament\u2019s Since Forever<\/em> captures the iconic band in rare moments throughout the decades<\/p>\n<\/p><\/div>\n

\n

\n\tAs Pearl Jam<\/a> evolved from a small group of friends in Seattle to one of the most impactful bands of their generation, founding member and bassist Jeff Ament began photographing their time backstage, in the studio, and on the road. <\/p>\n

\n\tAment revisited his archive of decomposing negatives with his brother, designer Barry Ament, a few years ago. The rediscovery of these precious images led to their new book, Since Forever<\/em>, a visual journey capturing the band\u2019s friendship and creativity as they rose to fame. A press release notes that the collection draws largely from previously unreleased images and features \u201ccandid moments of creativity, camaraderie, and the enduring relationships that helped sustain the band\u201d throughout the decades.<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cIf there was a goal, it was mostly to save the failing 30 year old negatives. It was Barry\u2019s idea to make a book,\u201d Ament said in a statement. \u201cNinety percent of these photos have never been seen before,\u201d he added.\u00a0\u201dAnybody who\u2019s a PJ fan or a fan of what was going on in the 90s will dig it.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\t\u201cHistorically, my family will often get together by creating some kind of project or job,\u201d Ament said. \u201cAnd in some ways, putting together this book was a job for Barry and me \u2013 a reason to hang out. Most of these photos are from 1990 to 1998. He was there for a lot of it. If he wasn\u2019t, he was next door or a phone call away.\u201d<\/p>\n

\n\tSince Forever\u00a0<\/em>is set to hit stands on Sept. 25, 2026. Jeff and Barry Ament are scheduled to kick off a book tour on Sept. 25 and 27 at Ohana Festival in Dana Point, California.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n
