Pearl Jam Share New Song 'Obey the Law of the Heart'
It's taken from the soundtrack for controversial new film 'Basmati Blues'
Pearl Jam have shared a new song, titled ‘Obey The Law Of The Heart’ and taken from the soundtrack to new film Basmati Blues.
The Brie Larson-starring flick has attracted a great deal of controversy over its ‘white saviour’ themes, with Larson’s white character ‘saving’ the local people of the Indian village she visits in the movie. A stereotype-filled trailer was released earlier this month, to widespread disapproval.

Brie Larson's 'Basmati Blues' Criticized for Trailer Featuring Indian Stereotypes
Producers apologize and say it isn't representative of the film, which stars the Oscar-winning actress as an American scientist sent to India to sell genetically modified rice to farmers.
The online backlash led Baron and co-producer Monique Caulfield to issue a statement which THR obtained from Shout! Factory. "We deeply regret any offense caused by the Basmati Blues trailer," it said, adding: "We have heard a number of voices that have understandably reacted to a trailer that is not representative of the film as a whole. Unfortunately, the international trailer has given the wrong impression of the film's message and heart."

i'll reserve judgment for when the full song is released but this isn't looking very promising, it will be different though so that's already something i guess.
