Dark Matter (song)

[oneway23]

God I hope she doesn't change over 30 years.

Truth be told, I look over at my wife sometimes and gaze upon her with the utmost objectivity.

[LetMeSleep]

Hang it up, love.

[oneway23]

I played her No Code and Vitalogy in their entireties immediately after the new song, explaining my history of adoration for these albums,

On Valentines Day? JFC tree.

Let's hope there was wine, or at least some Popeye's

[oneway23]

Hang it up, love.

Do I look into her eyes and occasionally recall with love the first joint we smoked together, barely older than children? Never
Do I look at her now and shudder at the feeling of sheer terror I felt when sitting by her hospital bed this past Autumn when we had some unexpected health scares? Of course not.

I'm all about the "What have you done for me lately, doll?"

We're only counting today.

Played this for my family for the first time. My daughter of four was quite excited about it, and did an interpretive dance to it.

[knee tunes]

I played her No Code and Vitalogy in their entireties immediately after the new song, explaining my history of adoration for these albums, and she felt just as bad as, if not worse than me about it. There comes a time.

Not surprising that Ed sounds quite different at 59 than he did at 29.

hmmmm I wonder if any other factors could also be at play here.....?

yeah that cheese grater

[Val]

He definitely didn’t

Out of all the things that didn’t happen this one didn’t happen the most (c)

[Walker Bait]

God I hope she doesn't change over 30 years.

Stone can fire her discreetly over waffles.

[Bammer]

God I hope she doesn't change over 30 years.

Stone can fire her discreetly over waffles.

Waffles?

Bro. Eggs.

[dimejinky99]

Eggs have gotten so expensive

[Anders]

Even worse.

[Birds in Hell]

I don't think Stone necessarily said it was a Matt song.

It was sort of unclear the way he said it, but I thought he meant "(We) wrote this amazing song called Dark Matter. It started out with a Matt Cameron drum beat"

That's also what I hear.

I don't think it's necessarily clear that Matt wrote it.

I'm open to being wrong but it still doesn't feel very Cameron-esque to these ears.

What has Johnny Guitar done to you, to be treated so poorly?

I can't speak for joostone, but there are many things I can't stand about that song. The lyrics, the melody, and the singing, for starters. There are few Pearl Jam songs that I flat out don't like. This being one.

[Birds in Hell]

The only thing wrong with Johnny Guitar is Ed's horrifying attempts at AAVE.

[Anders]

On itunes Watt and the entire band are listed as songwriters.

I’m mostly with you on this one. It wants to be a fun, lighthearted song…the clearest demonstration that Backspacer is the “fun” record…but it’s just kinda gross and lame. Very aggressive “I’M FUN NOW” energy.

[dimejinky99]

Fuck all this noise.

This is ten era pj. It’s Alone. It’s dirty Frank. it’s deep. It’s even flow. But grown up.

the closest pj have gotten to that energy in a while. I know they’re not trying to but closest to themselves at that point.
