I noticed your username. What is preferred speaker set up? Dolby Atmos? Quality bookshelf speakers? Bluetooth headphones? Your phone's speakers? Your answer is very important.
Ha. “Headinspeakers” is a reference to a lyric of the national’s tune “day that I die” … “years and years I used to put my head inside the speakers in the hallway when you’d get too high and talk forever”. Great song and band. I am no audiophile but I’m trying to be. I need a guide …. Please help me. Bottom line though, If I want to really listen and focus, I retreat to office where I have a pair of klipsch reference RP-600Ms with a subwoofer. Sounds great to me. Refuse to listen to music over phone speakers.

Tongue in cheek. Having never purchased tickets to a Pearl Jam show though, I was ….. surprised thirsty, and I’d like at the cost.

I tried to tell you. You don't cannibalize a successful single with a second one until you have to. Especially with the album still 5 weeks away.
Strap in because it ain't coming next week either.
last year my favourite band released half their album 2 weeks apart, shooting them to superstardom from relative obscurity; I respect what you told me but I honestly don't think "you don't" anything; there are more ways than one to skin a cat, and Pearl Jam's album release methods have always been wildly archaic; pretty sure they could go "fuck it, here it is, two months earlier than promised", and YouTube reaction channels would do all of the promotion work for them
