    Since Backspacer came out I've heard it called "Backscratcher", "BS", "Bullshitter", and several other less than flattering things. In the thread devoted to posting "Fail" pictures, somebody simply put up the Backspacer cover. So a lot of people were let down by that album as a whole. I don't find it all that bad, I like it more than Riot Act myself.

    Gotta say I like it too.

    Its not the best thing they ever did, but its still a tune that is likely to grow on me like got some did

    I understand Boyo's point, this is far removed from Ten, but their sound never stays still long, and the reason why their shows are so damn special is they visit a lot of different types of song throughout a set these days.....These little punky numbers are sharp on the stage too.....

    Was lucky to see supersonic before it was released and thought it was fucking awesome.

    All in all a very pleasant surprise today...

    and kudos to them for not going on the show and playing Alive....after all thats what I expected since they were promoting their 20 year products.

    Ha ha, guilty. I really can't stand that album. Haven't listened to a song on it since I last saw pearl jam in 09


    Edit: ironically my avatar is the space drummer from that album. Th artwork is the only thing I liked from that album.

    It's a Pearl Jam song allright. I hear Johnny Guitar, Ghost, Don't Gimme No Lip, Whipping in it just fine. Fast, groovy, a bit off, what's not to love. It will fit just nicely between 'big' songs on the album.
    Like the name, and liked tv performance, didn't overthink it, just enjoyed.

    I just have to add, whether you like the new song or not (when do we ever like a new PJ song on the 1st listen? it takes time to digest the lyrics, the cords, and so on, right?) - speaking of balls:

    Thank you PJ for having the balls to go on TV and give us a new song. Thank you further for giving it to us, the faithful fans for download for free. You didn't have to try a new song. You could have done a radio hit that the Fallon audience would have tapped their foot to the next day. You could have took the easy way out but being tried and true- you gave us something new. For that and more- very cool and i am grateful. Now give us a free download of "balls in your mouth" :D

    Like or dislike the song.... to me it's more about the fact that my fav band could have easily showed up on Fallon and played an oldie but goodie in celebration of PJ20... but instead decided to debute a new jam. Gotta love em.

    Good tune...hear a Whipping-style riff in there. I'm still holding out hope that a new album leans more toward what they did with Of the Earth. It would be great to see them stretch out into that almost-proggy territory like with Inside Job.

    I actually liked the song more after hearing the live performance, but still am warming up to it. Definitely not my favorite thing PJ has ever released.

    Need to decipher the lyrics but from what I heard on the first pass I do not like them. The music kicks ass however. Love Mike's wail at the end there. I didn't like Got Some on first listen but absolutely loved it after hearing the studio version.

    Pearl Jam has this weird ability to release something like that this and it doesn't sound like them at all, but then it does if that makes any sense.

    Just woke up, walked the dogs, watched PJ on Fallon, liked what i heard, downloaded the song on-line, have listened to it six times already, and I LOVE IT!!! Can't wait to hear it in Calgary, Edmonton and Vancouver.
