    I think as time passes and the newness of the DM songs wear off, Setting Sun will still hold it's impact on me. Nothing on Gigaton or LB has done that.

    Can’t wait to hear the Raleigh 2 boot.  Still can’t believe we got it as an opener that night.

    Their closers are all pretty great, The End & Future Days aren’t on the level of the rest but good songs

    Setting Sun is remarkable 

    Release
    indifference
    immortality 
    around the bend 
    all those yesterdays 
    parting ways 
    all or none 
    inside job 
    the end 
    future days 
    river cross
    setting sun 

    I made a playlist of them, it’s a nice Evening listen 

    Immortality is not the closing sing though, it might be where you turn the album off, so do I. But it’s not the closer, Stupid Mop is. That is how the band intended the album to close: I’ll die on that hill.
    Im not fuckin playing stupid mop before Bed...are you crazy? I made the playlist, to ease into bed....not Have Satan in the room with me ;)

    A playlist…
    it’s all I want so much.

    Everything you say here is true, but has nothing to do with whether or not Immortality is an album closer. It isn’t.

    Best song they’ve done in a long time. It’s quintessential Pearl Jam.

    Spent the day in & around NYC with some college friends who are a part of my PJ history.

    In 1995, I "borrowed" Cheryl's Vs. cassette when I saw the stamp that said "Five Against One". I still have it.

    28 years later, I stayed at her house for the ill-fated Noblesville show.

    Lots of driving yesterday, and we listened to Dark Matter a couple of times all the way through, and discussed it.

    It was so, so great to show them, and for them to hear themselves, all these years later, the band is still making GREAT music, and that, even after 34 years, we can still be gifted with a song like Setting Sun.
    May your days be long, til kingdom come.

    Cheers to the other two guys in Section 112 that night in Pittsburgh who matched my singing volume
    and energy for the best song in almost 20 years.

    Vegas 1 still takes the cake for me. Ed’s singing is absolutely perfect. Stone’s guitar for the second half is absolutely perfect. My voice going “yeaaaahhhh!!!” After the final “let us not fade” is absolutely perfect 😂
