i read it like this

I bet it comes after the stadium shows in the early to mid Fall.

Fuck it, I'm excited. I can feel 25 years of pearl jam muscle memory taking over, overruling my better judgment.

Aw huh.

[Monkey_Driven]

Yeah, fuck it, I'm excited too. I need to buy decent headphones though first.

Maybe this will be their "No Line on the Horizon." Horrendous first single, mostly excellent album tracks.

If this song a were toss-off a la Ole, fine..Lead-off single for a new album? Might be the worst first single they've ever put out.

This is better than The Fixer for sure. I can’t even listen to that one.

Solid garage rock fare. I feel like I need to listen to a higher quality sound recording. I'm missing Jeff in the mix, anyone else? I'm a fan of Getaway and Ole, and I think it's largely because of Jeff's stamp in it. In my first few listens, I had trouble grabbing onto anything, but now I've got it and I mostly dig it.

Main problem - the bridge. What is that? This band has been one of the great bridge writing bands I've heard, from literally Day one with Alive. This one seems to have a placeholder that was never filled in. Feels like a solid demo. As far is what it indicates for an album - no idea. Their singles are typically pretty random in terms of how they represent the album. This one doesn't break any new ground, it's just a nice, spontaneous sounding toss off, irreverent garage rock stomp right up Ed's alley. For an album, I certainly want more collaboration between the band members, whatever it is.

The definition of “upcoming” is literally “forthcoming”.

Let's hope not...Ambien on a disc, that one.

Do you think this will be better than Lightning Bolt?

Do you think this will be better than Lightning Bolt?

Initial thought was it can't be worse. Yeesh.

[E.H. Ruddock]

Changed their profile pic to this. Album art related?

So you think Lightning Bolt is the worst Pearl Jam album?
