Thank you. Is there much precedent for sports shows casually playing unreleased songs? Couldn't it have been just one of those generic "energetic guitar music" tracks you can license off Audio Jungle for 15 bucks? Those rarely appear on Shazam
how dare you compare 2024 Pearl Jam to generic energetic guitar music

the thought that they could somewhow be confused with one another is appalling

this is the band that created Can't Deny Me

the Hammerklavier of our generation

so much disrespecto

a bit of precedent actually. Fox did it during baseball season - this is how the fixer premiered (a clip). Verizon commercial introduced us to river cross during Super Bowl 53.

This has been discussed, but there’s broad consensus that it sounds like modern PJ, plus the snare sounds just like Earthling, and they took a similar approach to teasing DOTC. Also the official pit took down a link of the clip I think? All signs point to legit.

On these points generally, this was a good post:

I've listened to that clip 10 times and I'm still baffled at how many of you can have a strong opinion of it.

Very interesting. Thank you

The Pit taking down links to it more or less settles the matter

If that is indeed from a new PJ song they should do the greatest troll of all-time and add in the Mike Tirico commentary.

I haven't listened to it. I just meant that it's probably a PJ song if The Pit is taking down links.

Unless they're taking them down for "misinformation" or whatever

Your opinion on the song is no less relevant than the rest of us who have heard 4 seconds of it.

So, go on....

If they are taking down links at the pit that only further illustrates how behind the curve this band is in terms of marketing their music. Be proud of your work.

If it is them it’s an interesting way to let a new song leak.
