There are also welcome touches of mid-’00s dance-rock, with guitar stabs that could be off Franz Ferdinand’s debut alongside what sounds like a mix of live and programmed drums and a striking bass line played by Gossard.
It’s also illustrative of the band’s continuing commitment to anti-commercial perversity that they’d choose to release one of their most radio-friendly songs of the century, when the prospect of Top 40 radio playing Pearl Jam is about as likely as MTV rehiring Kennedy for an, Vedder told me that his goal for every Pearl Jam release, even now, is to top the rest of the band’s catalog.
travistefft I'm not the biggest fan, but I LOVE this song. It's badass. Wolf wolf!
It's pretty bad ass for sure.
Pre-grunge throw-back to the 80s? Talking Heads? Sounds like they used a drum machine. Sounds like Eddie fired the band and replaced them with Howard Jones.
Very 80s sounding, curious how the album will sound.
It’s not good. At all.
It SUCKS! Pop garbage!
I like it ! Has a Bowie kinda sound. Different for Pearl jam but everyone is changing and trying new styles and sounds. I think it works for them , I was diggin on it while listening 👏🤘!!
Pleasantly surprised...it gets better and better with each listen. Easily the best tune they done in the back half of their career.
Junk
I applaud PJ for trying something different, but it’s a no for me
I love it! Different from anything they’ve done but still has that classic Pearl Jam style. Can’t wait for March 27th!
I'm glad I wasnt the only one who immediately thought of the 'ecstacy phase'
Definitely feels like a Gossard riff/groove. I sense some New Wavey Funk Post Punk. It seems to vaguely borrow from some of the same places as Infallible
i absolutely love it.
To me I had to ask if DangerMouseJuke produced it. Very reminiscent of chili peppers last record.
Brilliant song ! I love it . Has an 80’s feel to it . Cracker . Lookin forward to the album PearlJam Gigaton
Does it not sound a little reminiscent of Talking Heads?
it's fucking fantastic
The Breeders meets Talking Heads meets Brad(Stone Gossard's earlier band) and it sounds ace. Textured, dense and groovin'.
Definitely flowing with⌛️’s Don’t know, probably not what I would have chosen for their 1st single, yet PearlJam making some Bowie’s reminisce their own. Kinda’ reminded me of ‘Who you are’ way back then. You are welcome Raza❗️ DanceoftheClairvoyants
PearlJamLyric Hmm… not sure yet what to think about it. I must say after the first listening I was a bit disappointed. 2nd time it went a lil better. Will see… 🙂
PearlJamLyric It is definitely funky, definitely different. And that’s not a bad thing
Still waiting for the follow up collaboration with Cypress Hill after the judgement night soundtrack, that will remain the funkiest PJ tune ever
Not bad....very Killers-esque
I really enjoyed it despite the underwhelming outro after the guitar solo.
Definitely different.... I don’t hate it.
evanrawal It’s awesome

Who will (and should) win Grammy gold in 2020Predictions for Album of the Year, Song of the Year, Best New Artist, and more. Give them all to lizzo. I find Billie Eilish kinda overrated. In my opinion, Billie Ellish will be the great winner... she is the best singer of the new generation!
