The visualizers are beautiful. I was wondering if the band was going to have them projecting on a screen behind them during the live shows.
That'd be cool!
That would be cool indeed.
Yes, it would be cool, but what about the people sitting behind the stage? Can it be setup so they can still see the band?
Forgot about that. A lot of shows I go to don't sell behind the stage, so there have been really interesting backdrops. I guess this would not work here. But it would be beautiful. I can see them in my head silhouetted in front of the images.
I probably only thought about it because I have a ticket for behind the stage at one of the shows>LOL
If they didn't have seats the it would be really good to have the visuals.
Pearl Jam to Stream Gigaton Audiovisual Experience For Free on Apple TV
The full album comes paired with immersive visuals
Prior to the release of Gigaton, grunge rock legends Pearl Jam were supposed to hold a massive listening party event in theaters all over the world. Because those plans were scrapped due to the ongoing pandemic, the band has decided to bring that special experience straight to fans’ homes.
Beginning tomorrow, April 24th, the “Gigaton Visual Experience” will be available to stream on Apple TV for free for the next seven days in over 100 countries. The immersive release features a full playback of the Gigaton album. Accompanying the music are vivid visuals curated and created by Evolve, the same filmmakers who helmed “Dance of the Clairvoyants”, Pearl Jam’s first official video in seven years.
“I’m excited for fans to be able to immerse themselves in the sound and to hear the depth and layers of these songs and performances,” Gigaton producer Josh Evans commented in a statement. “It’s truly a unique way to experience this album.” Editors' Picks
The “Gigaton Visual Experience” will be presented in both Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision. After the free seven-day period, customers will be able to purchase or rent the release.
Considering Eddie Vedder & co. were forced to postpone their Gigaton tour because of COVID-19, this audiovisual experience should keep fans happy for the time being. For those looking for more of Pearl Jam, check out our photo gallery celebrating their powerful live shows over the years.

Pearl Jam Offer Visual Album Experience Free for Limited Time
Pearl Jam Gigaton Visual Album Experience
Pearl Jam's grand plans for the "Gigaton Visual Album Experience"
got wiped out last month thanks to the current pandemic, but the band
has pivoted to find a way to provide the audio-video experience to fans.
They've teamed up with Apple TV, who will initially make it available
for free to Apple TV app users for a limited period, before making it
available to rent or buy.
Those with the Apple TV app will be able
to partake in the unique experience that Pearl Jam had planned for the
first seven days that it is available. This opportunity will be
available to fans in over 100 countries, but after the seven-day period
is up, the "Gigaton Visual Album Experience" will then be available to purchase or rent.
The
immersive experience paired eye-catching visuals from Evolve Studios
with Dolby Atmos quality audio that was initially meant to be presented
in Dolby Atmos-equipped theaters. Now moving to Apple TV, the event will
still be available in Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision.
“I’m excited
for fans to be able to immerse themselves in the sound and to hear the
depth and layers of these songs and performances" explains Gigaton producer Josh Evans. “It’s truly a unique way to experience this album.”
The "Gigaton Visual Album Experience" goes live at midnight ET / 9PM PT this evening at this location.
Pearl Jam's Gigaton
album debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 Album Chart after being
released on March 27. So far, the album has yielded the Top 10 rock
singles "Dance of the Clairvoyants" and "Superblood Wolfmoon," as well
as the preview track "Quick Escape."
Pearl Jam's Visual Album Experience 'Gigaton' will be
available on Apple TV for free! Well until Thursday that is, after that
you will have to pay to rent or purchase. This will be available for
Pearl Jam fans in over 100 countries.
The experience has somewhat hypnotic eye-catching visuals from the folks at Evovle Studios.
A statement from Apple's marketing material said "Pearl Jam have
released their highly anticipated and long waited new album 'Gigaton.'
Their 11th album and first in nearly 7 years is already receiving mass
critical acclaim as their greatest and most adventurous work to date.
This immersive visual album pairs the bands inspired visuals and
footage, produced by the award-winning Evolve Studios, to create
unparalleled 360 experience that enhances Gigaton's massive scope. Mixed
in the revolutionary Dolby Atmos immersive immersive audio format and
provided together wit Dolby Vision high dynamic range video, this visual
album experience is the first of its kind on Apple TV. With this
immersive audio experience, Pearl Jam fans will have a unique
opportunity to hear the album in a completely different way."
The
producer to Gigaton Josh Evans says “I’m excited for fans to be able to
immerse themselves in the sound and to hear the depth and layers of
these songs and performances, It’s truly a unique way to experience this
album.”
The album debuted at No. 5 on the Billboard 200 Album
Charts after its release on 27th March. The album has reached in the Top
10 rock singles for "Dance of the Clairvoyants", "Superblood Wolfmoon"
and "Quick Escape".
For fans who fan to see the fully immersive Gigaton experience, they
will need to have an Apple TV 4k that's paired with a Dolby-Vision
supported 4K HDR TV and a Dolby Atmos-compatible sound system.
The 3D surround effects are amazing, if anyone has ever experienced
the Doly Atmos, it makes objects you see on the screen sonically shift
from one side of the room to the other. Put this together with the voice
of Eddie Vedder and the sonic sounds of Pearl Jam and this would be a
pearler!

So, that's all you need>LOL
Well we may just be a tad early for this as I bet in a year or two every TV will have this stuff built into it.
It would be cool if they let it output Atmos even if your receiver doesn't have Atmos support. Atmos is backwards compatible... it outputs as Dolby TrueHD if you have an older receiver. If I play a bluray with an Atmos track it still sounds epic and amazing. It's a shame they made it so hard to access the highest audio quality.

There seems to be a misunderstanding about Atmos. Atmos isn't a codec like AC3 or TrueHD, but rather an extension to existing codecs. That extension can be added to Dolby Digital Plus (which I'm assuming is the case here as the download file seems to be only 5GB) or Dolby TrueHD.
I saw somewhere listing the audio for this as Atmos (most likely Dolby Digital Plus), Dolby Digital Plus 7.1, AAC stereo. If I had to guess Apple TV is looking at what your device is capable of doing as well as your bandwidth and then deciding on the best possible format.

You're probably right about that. But, by the time I get around buying a new TV there be some other funky format to listen to music. I'm always WAY behind technology.

Mixing your album in Dolby Atmos turns your favorite songs into fully transformative events. Don’t take our word for it – here’s Josh Evans (Producer, Pearl Jam’s Gigaton) on how Dolby Atmos brought Gigaton to life.
See and hear it for yourself with the Gigaton Visual Experience in Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision*. Free through 4/30 only on Apple TV app.
About Dolby Atmos Music Imagine if there were a way to connect with music at its fullest capacity and creative potential – not the way most people hear music today, but a version that pulls you into a song to reveal what was lost with traditional recordings. Dolby Atmos does just that. Whether it’s a complex harmony of instruments placed around a listener, the unleashing of a legendary guitar solo, a massive bass drop that washes over you, or the subtle breath a singer takes, Dolby Atmos gives music more space and the freedom to unleash every detail and emotion as the artist intended.

“I’m excited for fans to be able to immerse themselves in the sound and to hear the depth and layers of these songs and performances" explains Gigaton producer Josh Evans. “It’s truly a unique way to experience this album.”
The event will be available in Dolby Atmos and Dolby Vision, revolutionary audiovisual technologies developed by Dolby, which will bring the album alive through immersive audio and ultravivid picture quality.* This audiovisual album experience is available free for a limited time only on the Apple TV app in over 100 countries and regions.**
*To experience the album in Dolby Atmos or Dolby Vision, viewers will need an Apple TV 4K (paired with a Dolby Atmos and/or Dolby Vision enabled device) or compatible iPhone, iPad, or MacBook device.
**Free on the Apple TV app until 11:59PM EST on April 30, 2020
Maybe the added 20+ minutes that was to be shown in theatres will be included on the Blu-ray release?
I was guessing it’d be studio/mixing footage to highlight Atmos - not necessarily a drawn out ad for Dolby but a mini-documentary of the recording process and how the audience would experience the audio. Maybe a bonus feature for a Blu Ray release...

It would suck if that was all it was.
