Red Mosquito

Did Watt use pitch correction all over Mick's vocals?!

It sounds terrible.

This is all very foreboding for the new Pearl Jam record.

it sounds pretty good to me. I like it

Haven't listened with headphones, i was never hoping for an excellent sounding new PJ record with Watt behind the board......

But i dont mind this song as a song. That bass is cool, slightly distorted, pumping through. Good guitar interplay.

yeah, i like what the guitars are doing

I like it. I am not going to expect a gritty 70s album from them at this point, but this does the trick for now. My only disappointment is comparing this to Living in a Ghost Town, which I really liked a lot. Hopefully the direction they are going incorporates a lot of those elements too.

The video is hilariously stupid

Unfortunately one of those elements was Charlie Watts
Though looks like he's on Live by the Sword and Mess It Up.

it's perfectly in line with every music video they've done

Agreed. That’s a very good song.

I like the billboards. Those are cool

It sounds very small and flat

It sounds like a demo they compiled via dropbox, and no one had any ideas.

joostone‘s description of it as an AI Stones song is still the most accurate.

What if it actually is, that’d be hilarious

I kind of like the song. It grew on me as it went along. There's a few somewhat hooky hooks in there.

But production-wise, yikes. The sound of the drums is the worst offender, and I don't like what's going on with the vocals. Everything sounds harsh and thin, but also with that big glossy pop sheen. And I'm guessing a generous helping of brickwall?

But still, the song's not bad!

It does sound like what a Stones song is supposed to sound like, but frankly after 18 years, I don’t mind that.

yeah, im warming up with the new song. I just dont like Watt´s background vocals and specially how that moment sound.

Been into a huge Stones roll...Emotional Rescue and Hot Stuff. Damn, those two...

Hand of Fate is an underappreciated gem.

Of course i also dived into Voodoo again

I like the new song!

Yeah, i like it too. Gaga is well used although i dont really need her at all.

But the good part is that it sounds good.

Also, im warming a lot with Angry.
