The reason this doesn't feel like a single is the total lack of any marketing hype behind it. It was a surprise release on a Tuesday out of nowhere that was directly inspired by the school shooting and protests. Then there was confusion whether it was a Christmas single or from an actual album. I dunno wtf they are doing.


I remember for Mind Your Manners we had a few weeks of teaser videos and artwork teasers until the single dropped. Felt like proper album hype. What are they doing now? Give us something already :shake:

You know it's gotten bad in Pearl Jam land when the guy who didn't feel like I Got Id lived up to Pearl Jam's standards is defending the quality of 30-40 seconds of their new single. :shake:
I never understood why I Got Id was/continues to be so underrated. It's a great tune, if you ask me.

In comparison, Can’t Deny Me is a breakthrough. That pretty much sounds like the same AIC nu metal they’ve done time and again since Korn was a radio regular.

:facepalm:

The only AIC song released in Korn's heyday was Get Born Again and this sounds nothing like that.

By the time AIC came back in 2009 Korn was super old news.

I guess it will be on the next album, which i think is kinda finished by now, but they are still not saying anything about the actual release. Maybe they could write some more in this tour who knows.
