    Can I order this without worrying about a limited or colored ten club exclusive version dropping later?
    Of course not. I already know i’ll own at least three versions of this
  • It’s finally on iTunes!

    I don't really like this song. It's just Eddie and a drum machine. I know it's Matt with a snare trigger, but it's pretty terrible. When you compare the drumming on Superunknown to this, it's not good.  This doesn't sound like a band, I can't hear Mike , Stone or Jeff. Sorry for all the negativity, I really had high hopes for this album and I'm not writing it off yet. I've been listening to PJ since I was 16, my first gig was the Point 2000 when I was 19. I think it's important to give honest feedback to the band and tell them whats up - not to just say this is amazing because it's Pearl Jam.
    How....How can you not at the very least hear the bass? I think your hearing may be shot..,

    Among other sounds, feels like they were listening to Talking Heads during the recording.

    So when Eddie says ‘it sounds like us’ or was that Stone? Can’t remember, anyways, I’m thinking that maybe they thought BS and LB weren’t what they were hoping for in terms of production. Is that why they decided to produce it themselves along with Josh?

    The most interesting part of Cohens review to me was the mention that Retrograde dates back to a 2017 recording session.  We know that they had another recording session in February 2018 that produced Cant Deny Me.  The following month they released Cant Deny Me with a note saying it was from their forthcoming album.  This makes me believe that they did in fact have an album completed but was later scrapped.  Seems all the other songs on Gigaton were recorded in 2019 and only Retrograde made the cut from the previous sessions.  So assuming Retrograde and Cant Deny Me would have been on that 2018 album it's safe to assume there are probably at least another 8-10 songs that they recorded for said album.  Hopefully in upcoming interviews somebody asks the guys if this is what happened.

    Retrograde dates back to a 2017 recording session...Seems all the other songs on Gigaton were recorded in 2019 
    Ed played River Cross at Ohana in 2017.
    I've seen quite a few Pearl Jam shows.
