The very end of that reminds me of one of the unreleased song that leaked a long while back, words were all mumbled, but it had a similar groove.

Yeah, I believe that was the one. I can't find it on my computer at the moment to compare though.

Reminds me of Infallible (ok, I really like this song), but this has potential to be much better based on the snippet. I can see Ed singing on this and anything will sound cool.
I concur. Oh what could have been with Infallible.

what he needs to do with "...to find a place that Trump hadn't fucked up yet" is deliver it with Bushleaguer levels of humour and swag

I see we've entered the pre-DOTC release talk where the clip got us excited, and we were wondering how Ed would fuck it up.

Air AND Ambiance?!?

Praise Be!
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

Now that was an interesting snippet...very excited to hear this one.

I went back to check what some of the reviews said about it, and here's a nice blurb: "“Quick Escape” might be the best of the bunch. Penned by Jeff Ament and relying on his rumbling basslines, the song rides a grinding, uncomfortable groove underpinning talk of fleeing to far-flung lands to seek refuge from the headlines of the day, before rupturing into a chorus that, no joke, feels like it could’ve been on one of Pearl Jam’s early ’90s releases."
