It must be. your begging for commercially available material goes back to the Gigaton release.

I've got a break from Zoom meetings at 12. Looking forward to hearing this, although WWC meets Binaural/Let it Ride comparisons don't speak to my PJ wheelhouse

Lol

Haha, all the tracks are truly fantastic! Both that Jeff and Stone song sounds like nothing they have ever done before.

Stone played 2 of his vault tracks on sirius radio some time ago, and now this track! The man is sitting on a goldmine

meeting got out early so here we go...

Honestly it sounds like some of those instrumental tracks from the S/T sessions that leaked a few years ago with some great ed vocals.

Nothing Binaural here.

Yeah, you're right. The ST demos are probably closest. On first listen this didn't really light any fires under me. I liked the solo at the end, but the music had a twinkly kind of plodding qualtiy that didn't excite me, and this is a register/cadence that I don't think showcases Eddie's strengths (or at least the things I like to see). Some of his vowel annunciations are fairly noticeable. There is nothing particularly playful or limber in his delivery, or any particular emotional intensity. There are a few moments that try to lift off a bit, but the sludgey music during those points really prevent it from lifting off. What little of the lyrics I could make out didn't really excite me, but that takes time to unpack (or even fully hear).

Reminds me a little bit of Amongst the Waves with less personality. This was a bit of a swing and a miss for me. I can see why this didn't make Gigaton, which 6 months out I still adore.

(two listens by the end of the post)

The WWC/Matt Cameron influence is very strong here, and he is easily my least favorite writer in the band (although my second favorite drummer), so this is clearly a song not written for the stips of the world.

Is it weird that I hear a little Faithful in here?

Sounds like it would be on Lost Dogs. Nice song, but it definitely won't be an all-time PJ classic.

Great production though - it has that pre-2006ish PJ charm.

First thoughts are that i don't necessarily think its better than anything on Gigaton, but its a quality b-side for sure.

Definitely right at the beginning.

yup

I could be robbing, I could be killing, but I'm just asking for a link plz

Holy shit...they're back, ladies and gentemen. Pearl Jam are BACK.

wipes the floor with anything off Shitatron.

I just got VERY excited for the new album if this single is anything to go by.

I think PJ radio just played it - had some Gigaton-y sounds on it.

If I knew how I’d provide it but I don’t

PJ, at their best, have always had an autumn vibe to me, and that was missing from a lot of the most recent stuff, Gigaton notwithstanding.

This song has it.

I like this take. Now I guess I should hear the song.
