All indications is that there's nothing special here.

There wasn't a "10 Club Edition" of Lightning Bolt, and that was only CD.
Wasn't there red vinyl LB?
yeah there was a red. but it was advertised as a 10c exclusive
I also believe it was a limited, 10C Limited Edition.

Like, 1 in 10 of the first pressing were in red.

I preordered and mine was black.
....and damaged...
It took me about 2 months from release to get a working Vinyl copy from 10 club. I'll keep my fingers crossed for a local store to have Gigaton.

Not downtempo, moody, dark synths. They did shit synth on BS.

there was some synth/keyboard stuff going on on Lightning Bolt, specifically Pendulum and Infallible which sounded real good. Adds to the vibe.

Not going to get too excited because at the end of the day, Ed's voice will probably still be obnoxiously front and center on every track.

why do people think this will be a synth heavy record?

THOSE PRICES ARE OUTRAGEOUS! $35usd for a CD? Is this 1999 plus $5 extra?

just wait til Amazon puts it up. it will be less and have free shipping. then you can order the 7" separate if you wish. will still be cheaper in the long run.

I've said it before and I'll say it again: Stop giving Pearl Jam your money.

So, I'm going to speculate heavily here. I think that the album was going to be originally released last year.

Why? CDM was the "single from their forthcoming album". But the song flopped.

Somehow PJ listened to the feedback and decided to halt the album. Bob was pushed out. Then, either some or many new tracks were written or recorded or remixed.

CDM is now going to remain a single, and nothing more.

Gigaton will be amazing (MASSIVE SPECULATION) because PJ listened.

Sigh

Note that I am NOT responding to anymore PMs due to the influx. If you want the link then look in the usual places. Do NOT PM me because I won't respond.
