As I said, my sources say that it's a belter of a record.

Like...you honestly think that they're going to do another album? I just...can't...stop...laughing You ARE aware that the band basically broke up in 2007 and has been a husk since, motivated purely by money? Like...you people ARE aware of that, right? Because it's the most obvious thing ever Unless you think dreck like Just Breathe and Let The Records Play are worthy editions to the canon

Whatever they have morphed into as a modern version of a band--if they still even qualify as a band at this point--really has no relevance in modern music--not even as a nostalgia act. While that has never been the goal for them, they just feel less and less relevant as the days and years pass.

To me, the overall sound just feels dated. So if they have taken all this time to figure out how to be interesting or modern or relevant as musicians I am all for the wait.

This is not saying go sound like Imagine Dragons or Chainsmokers or any other popular quasi rock band, but something new and fresh to them. Doing the same album over and over really has only worked for the Foo Fighters and most of that is just because Dave is so likable in the eyes of the mainstream.

So what would it mean to be different? More atmospheric songs, less pop-punk, no Vedder soft pop songs, different drum patterns and sounds, less Eddie screaming, explore new lyrical angles, etc. This is not only a Pearl Jam issue but for rock bands in general. Maybe it truly all has been done.
