Also...

The signal tower (or whatever it's called) in the "Sirens" artwork seems to mirror the stance of the "Getaway" priest -- 'arms raised in a V'. The heart in the 'head' of the tower might echo the religion theme too.

Im sure let the records play wont be the same its a different album, a different song, when has pearl jam done 2 of the same songs before? Not often.
there aren't many people who will defend backspacer more aggressively than I will, and even I don't like supersonic

serious question--do you teach and/or study english literature. you've drawn attention to some pretty technical distinctions in the language, sub genres of poetry, etc. in the past. Nothing as technical as there, their, and they're, obviously, but still

Nah. They already have a song about the moon on it. That's enough celestial beings for one album.

Well, they already have a song about vinyl albums as well, but that didn't stop them. Hell, I am pretty sure that all the titles revealed so far are lyric snippets from other PJ songs (except Future Days), so the whole thing could be self referential.

If it's not one of the tracks that's revealed today, then my guess is no.
