I loved Dark Matter when it came out. It's only grown in my estimation over the last year, and especially the last few months, as the world around us gives it an air of apocalyptic prophecy. Great lyrics. Thunderous performances. Everything hits so hard. Amazing song.

Gods' Dice is a song on Pearl Jam's 6th studio album, Binaural. It is the number two track, and ensures that the album is able to progress from song 1 to song 3.

Gods’ Dice is underrated. A gem of a song.

Let’s see, doubt it will pull this one off against a fairly mediocre song.

Dark Matter is a great 5 star Pearl Jam song. And it should run away with this. But this is RM, so..

Gods' Dice is a cool song. It's grown on me some over the years (it used to be one of my least favorite PJ songs). But it's so punching out of its weight class here.

It’s Gods’ Dice, and it’s great.

That’s right.

I'll go with DM here. I like it more each time I hear it. But I don't hear it that often tbh.

This is honestly much closer than I expected!

Gods’ dice is a good song, but DM is better.

Gods' Dice. It's not my favorite on Binaural, but Dark Matter never really did much for me.
