It could bounce back to one but given its now Foo Fighters topping the chart and Green Day holding at number two I don’t see it going to number one again. Time for the new radio single!! Is Running getting any radio play at all? If not they should release a new song now.
It's still sitting at #1 on Billboard's Mainstream Rock chart for the fourth week in a row (the below is reflecting charts dated April 6, 2024):

"Dark Matter" (7 weeks)

Alternative Airplay (18-10-10-10-9-7-7)
Mainstream Rock Airplay (17-6-3-1-1-1-1)
Rock & Alternative Airplay (6-1-2-1-1-2-3)
Hot Rock & Alternative Songs (46-28-31-31-35-37-43)
Hot Hard Rock Songs (3-1-2-2-2-3-2)
Canada Rock (10-3-2-1-1-1-1)
Adult Album Alternative (Triple A) (39-26-22-19-20-19)

I pulled this from here: https://community.pearljam.com/discussi ... the-charts

Oh interesting! I was looking at Mediabase. It’s number three on this chart. I don’t have access to Billboard and always thought they were similar. I guess not! https://www2.mediabase.com/mbapp/Accoun ... 811be6d84a

They gave us 2 songs. I prefer to wait and be surprised by the full album. Let's not give in to anxiety.

Couldn't be

We can make it. I hope they continue to deny us.

Seems highly likely.

They’re edging the absolute f**k out of us and they know it.

If they follow the same release schedule as Gigaton (and it kinda looks like they are) we might get a 3rd single a couple of days before official release day.

Taylor Swift has not released so much as a snippet from any song from her album coming out on the 19th…and she’s selling 4 different versions of the album, each with a different bonus track. So if you want them all you gotta buy it four times (thank God for Spotify or my daughters would force me to be the proud owner of all four of these). Pearl Jam could learn a thing or two about milking their fans from TS…

besides "get it back", PJ don't seem to have any left overs for bonus tracks no more

Really feels like we’re not getting another single before the album drops.

Or at least everything they finish. Stone said they were choosing which songs to keep from the first session when they started at Shangri-La.

At your local movie theatre on 4/16 :P

Also, looking at the Gigaton releases again, they're definitely following that same path.
1st single 2 months before release.
2nd single 1 month before release.
3rd single a couple of days before album release day (and no way the whole thing doesn't leak before the 3rd single).
