Dark Matter: Official Album Thread

[Monkey_Driven]

Now would be a really great time to release some Dark Matter themed hats on PJ.com.

Not believing the Howard Stern stuff until it’s announced on any day other than today.

we're living in a world where "PJ playing live music!" might be an April Fool by PJ

If its true then its great news...interview followed by a couple of songs live yeah.

[Monkey_Driven]

I hope Watt is there to produce the live feed.

Matt was on Pinfield’s show last night, but I’m assuming nothing good came from it.

I'd still like to hear it, but, it was prob just the same dumb 45 second pre-taped, canned answers they played once at the beginning and once at the end, just like the Stone "interview" last week.

I asked the reviewer on reddit for a few more tidbits

"What would you say are your favorite tracks? Upper Hand sounds like a highlight

Upperhand is great in that it's epic and begs to be talked about for its throwback factor. It aligns with the bands own narrative about the record if that makes sense.

My fave tracks:

React respond. Brilliant rocker. Old dog with new tricks.

Wreckage. absolutely beautiful eddie song. Think light years meets seven o clock that shifts between a clean mildly country twang and a powerful all in e street band vibe.

Setting sun. This brings the weird ament driven pearl jam for the first couple minutes. It'll likely turn some peeps off. Eds vocal took a few lyrics to settle for me. Shifts into a big emotive stunner"

just 20 seconds, how hard would that be?

Thanks for these updates. First E Street Band shout. Ed's transformation into Bruce is now complete.

Wreckage continues to sound like the PJ sweet spot for me in the year of our lord, 2024.

Reserve your judgements until you hear them for yourselves

[Jaeti]

This is going to be good.

[oneway23]

Perhaps I'm being overly optimistic or hopelessly naive, but, all jokes aside, I continue to firmly believe we've already heard the worst this album will have to offer...

Please?

Too late! "Setting Sun" is already my favorite track on the album.

Please?

Something Special is a reeeeeal possibilityyyyyyy

but I hope not, I've heard a decent amount of it now, unless Watt puts an army of kazoos on it

We haven’t yet heard Something Special in its glorious abdominal pain inducing completeness
