I'm going to wait for the official release...I wonder what's the big deal about 2 days for the 10c? They ought to release it today since it was floating out there. Embrace it, not fight it. Get into the 21st century, besides if people are going to go crawling around on the internet to find Pearl Jam songs, it's a safe bet they already bought the album or will buy the album, ain't that correct?

It's also on Youtube, btw (not officially so I better not link). Just search 'Pearl Jam' and filter by new.

Hmm, I don't love this but there's nothing about it I dislike. Hopefully it's a grower like everything else we have heard so far.

If Sirens was such a knockdown, imagine what My Father's Son does to us.
It was the lone song that was consistantly dubbed as 'strange/unusual/weird' in the reviews.

Mirella?

Yeah, that is probably the most commercial song they've ever made. Heavy production/layers in there.
If somebody had released this song in 1994-2002, I would have pointed to it and said "See, THAT'S exactly what Pearl Jam will never sound like."

**That's not a values statement. That's an explanation of what makes it confusing to hear for the first time.
this is an accurate statement.
