Gigaton: Official album thread

[j's brain]

Do you think this will be better than Lightning Bolt?

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

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

A. Yes, by a lot
B. If this track was on LB, it would be in the bottom tier

This is accurate.

This is accurate.

Can’t Deny Me is for sure better than three songs on LB, and potentially better than half the album. Still, that’s depressing.

i read it like this
forthcoming - in progress
upcoming - in the can

I'm guessing this will be out in August earliest.
Cant Deny Me was just recorded last month

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

the last time i recall the band using forthcoming was when they performed Got Some on Late Night.

And the album dropped, 4-5 months later?

They're in Chile tonight, does CDM get played? And do they say "from our forthcoming album" or "something we're working on"

4 months
"world premiere of a song from their forthcoming album, Backspacer" while holding up cover art featuring a human head and torso split down the middle with one half's insides exposed, Conan introduced Pearl Jam

Its really not a big deal so not trying to argue it. I'm calling August though

from a friend in the know...

Hey. I thought you might find this interesting. I was able to get a sneak peak at a few songs.

Gutter
Lifecycle
Mastermind
Can't Deny Me
Forest Fire
Summer Snow

[EJ]

That screams upcoming as opposed to forthcoming.

It's not even subtle.

Samoflange

Trumpus Cuntus
Lumbago
Get Off My Lawn

Ohhhhhh Get Off My Lawn sounds like it'll be a cutting track. Can't wait!!!

I hope the chorus is an auto-tuned sample of Clint Eastwood from Gran Torino.

How dare you impugn my sources, you wench

[littlecomment]

Some demo song titles I've seen floating around some inner circles:

Late Night Drive
No Answer
Thread
Cut
My Sickness Hovers Over Me
Watershed
So Long To The Light
The River To The Lake
Lethal
False Hopes
Moonglow

[bodysnatcher]

to be fair, this was Conan's first Tonight Show and he wanted to make a splash so PJ agreed to be his first musical guest. I don't know that they intentionally meant to release that song so long before the album dropped.

[MikeyIsGod]

Catchy song but I'm indifferent to this album unless I hear Stone wrote 8 songs.

I'll look forward to it, no matter what. But more Stone is always a good thing.

unless it's a bunch of Let the Records play...

[HeyGuys]

Imagine wanting to make a splash and contacting Pearl Jam.
