The third song sounds like the "anthem fist pump" song.

I'm really enjoying all of these, but the last one is my favorite. Something about the melody just grabs me.
Pearl Jam is the only band I'll spend money on.

That snippet is by far the hardest for me to make out. /goes back to playing Hunger Strike on my 6 string banjo

Probably referring to second to last.

They all sound promising except the penultimate. Hopefully that’s just a boring part in an otherwise good track.

First and last snippets have me right turgid.

the penultimate 3/4 ditty is the one that's got stuck in my head the most and I'm not mad about it

That one sounds the most like the Earthling album to me, if I'm thinking of the right track.

It's bizarre we haven't heard more from the media types, and even the ones we have seen, haven't given much detail. The Gigaton listening party write-ups were full of details and lyrics.

Did the band make them sign NDA's or some shit until a certain date? I still am so confused about a listening party like this and no information to follow.

We've got eight snippets from an alleged 11-song album.

I'm guessing they have more detailed writeups in the can for when the album is officially announced.

It does seem weird but we really have no idea what's going on so I don't really feel like I can judge one way or the other.

That's my thing, though. The Santos dude clearly tried hyping it a little to fans and making them aware it's real, and now they're radio silent. The way they're going about it is bizarre.

I'm actually beginning to feel a bit pissed off that no date has been announced; this feeling is not excitement
