    It’s one thing for him to feel that way, but why would he say it in an interview? Kinda a slam on Stone, Watt & whichever members wrote the current songs in one swoop. Just seems unnecessary, say “yeah we’ll see when we finish” or something and leave it at that.

    It was in the first part of the interview Jeff did about the Skate Parks in Montana
    Thanks!

    Article I just read says Andrew Watt is a fan club member with over 50 shows under his belt. Does he post here?

    There does seem to be a solid divide in the band between being active and being judicious about putting Pearl Jam out in the world. Clearly it’s a healthy divide, but it’s just interesting.

    I see that Jeff pumped the brakes a little bit on the progress of the new album. He said it’s too soon for Stone to have said anything!

    JA thinks that they are maybe half way through it & whilst the work done to date ‘feels good’ Jeff thinks that the jury is still out for him on what’s been done so far & he’s ‘still not sure’ about the songs.

    It definitely won’t be out in 2023.

    Remember in April when they said “big things” were coming in the next year? Because if this is the timetable then the album isn’t part of that.

    If after a year they are only “halfway”, with a member who isn’t even sure he likes the material they have, forget 2023, I’m not too confident we’re getting this in 2024 either.

    Didn’t Mike allude to some EP after Backspacer (or around that time)? That never saw the light of day

    These guys typically give different answers during the recording process, so this is nothing new. It'll be out when it's done - I just think it's awesome that they're still writing & recording, to be honest.
    I LOVE MUSIC.

    I sincerely hope people aren't hanging their hats on any of this, or pinning their happiness to the timing of a new album.  There is a HUGE world of undiscovered music to be uncovered for all of us.  Go find it. When they have new material ready to share, you'll know - promise.  Until then, please don't sit around waiting with bated breath.  As for me, I'm stoked about the two shows I'll see in later summer and that will be plenty of PJ for my '23.  Maybe next yr will bring some interesting news :)

    Unless you fell in love with this band due to Lightning Bolt or Gigaton, I wouldn’t worry too much about when a new album might be out. I’m sure a lot of people here are like me and fell in love with this music sometime between Ten and Yield or Binaural or Riot Act and have been here ever since. Chances are, you’re not going to love this new thing as much as your first love and like they said above, there’s plenty of stuff to listen to in the meantime.
