    Not bad. Not good either. I feel like this song has been done over and over. Oh well. I’ll still buy the album because I’m a completist and hope I listen to it more than Lightning Bolt and Gigaton.

    Man, they weren’t joking about Matt. Dude is playing out of his mind. 
    Exactly.  Can't wait to hear what else MFC has going on throughout this record.

    I like it - the break at 1:25 is my favorite part.  It’s going to be fun live - Matt Cameron is another standout with his fills.  They’re not wrong when they single out his playing in these promo interviews. 

    I don’t like the early years comparisons. Every record is another version of the band.  So far, I like this version. 

    Excited for the rest of the songs.

    Feels like we've heard this one before. Kinda cut from the same cloth as Supersonic or Superblood Wolfmoon and maybe a few others. And like Dark Matter, I can't understand a word he's saying. But, lot of energy and some cool guitars. Besides Lukin and throwaway stuff like Pry, To, is this the shortest PJ song?

    I’m never any good at hearing songs produced, then determining if they’ll be good live.  I thought Never Destination was going to be an all timer live, and it fell really flat.  

    I do agree that this sounds a lot like an EV single off The Earthlings, but considering the singer and producer are the same, that shouldn’t be a shock to most of us.  

    I don’t have a great feel either way on it.  I like parts of it. It’s short, which always frustrates me about this amazing band.  My guess is that as I start to hear it more, get a feel for the lyrics and their meaning, I’ll warm up a lot to it.  I hope it is great live,  DM grew on me fast and now I think it is great, so hopefully get the same effect here.

    Song is decent at best imo. But the production is terrible to my ears. This was my biggest fear when I heard watt was producing. I was hoping this album sounded more like gigatons production but with better songs. Can’t have it all I guess.

    I was meh on the song yesterday, but something with it clicked this morning and it just tears!  Jeff's baseline is so thick and really contrasts with Mike's playing.  Matt is killing it too.  I kind of see the comparisons to some of the previously released punk songs (Supersonic, Ole, etc...), but I think it has more texture then those do.  I liken it more to Hail Hail or Whipping.  The juxtaposition of the controlled melodic bridge with the the chaotic verse that proceeds it is my favorite part.

    I dont hear hail hail or whipping. The more i repeat listen the more I don't like watts style. I won't get all neg which i do easily. But i fear for this album when the dust settles
     Again just my take

    I always find these reactions so interesting. You wouldn’t think nearly as many people still listen to Pearl Jam for the lyrics and catchy melodies as there appears to be. They’re obviously not and haven’t been a pop band for quite some time. There’s a lot of really cool stuff from these first two tracks happening musically though. The bridge and outro in this song in particular is fantastic.

    After more listens, it caught on for me much faster then Dark Matter, I was pretty hooked and listened about 30 times right away.  My favorite uptempo song since Go. 

    The opening 10 seconds or so of just Jeff and Matt is all sorts of awesome. The 1:30 mark, whatever that is called maybe bridge - i dunno - just a cool little mild break in the tempo. 

    Feels like Go/Comatose/Lukin/Brain of J made a man child and this is the result.

    Unlike SBWM from Gigaton - this song should be a banger live.  

    I too feel like some over production probably on studio but I don't listen to studio albums from PJ once live boots are out so doesn't really bother me. Feel like the production concerns go out the window when it's in your face
