Gallagher Rose Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 (edited) Here's their new tune: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pF3Cp47r-YY It's not monumental, but cool....just cool. I think the band will split soon, since there's no inspiration and creativity and it's explicit in their songs.

bt88 Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 Plenty would disagree that there is no inspiration. Pearl Jam has always taken the no frills approach. They still sell out arenas all over the world so theres no feasible reason for them to splitIn regards to the song it songs almost too poppy for PJ. The hook almost sounds like friggin Cheap Trick. Might be a personal taste thing, i always liked their harder stuff like Spin The Black Circle and Save You. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myguiltysecret Posted July 20, 2009 Share Posted July 20, 2009 I love pearl jam but I don't even want to listen to this yet. I'm scared I won't like it as the last two albums didn't grab me as much as the ones from the previous decade. Lately they sound kind of uninspired to me too, but maybe that's just the direction of the music they're taking. Mind you I'm still willing to see them live whenever/whereever I can. Crossing my fingers for shepherd's bush tickets at the moment! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spoon87 Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Not my cup of tea yet but I'm sure they'll spice it up live.Anyway, I can't wait for the friggin' album! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
myguiltysecret Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 There's an eddie interview on iplayer at the moment: http://www.bbc.co.uk/radio1/zanelowe/. They play the song twice, it's grown on me but it's not a patch on their earlier music. I especially like what I call their mid-90s "esoteric" era leading up to and including Binaural - everything since then hasn't lived up to it really.BTW, can't get tickets for Shep bush - so so gutted right now.

LightningBolt Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 It's pretty good. Though I disagree it's too poppy, it is poppy, but not all that much. They made it work. It's nothing spectacular. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
EternalFlame Posted July 21, 2009 Share Posted July 21, 2009 Pearl Jam is one of my favorite bands. I actually like this song. Of course it isn't their best, but it's not bad. Not bad at all. *Bobs head to song.* Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they'd be a lot happier doing acoustic stuff, in the vein of Neil Young. They seem so much in their environment on the Unplugged show, and the acoustic songs on Lost Dogs are pretty strong, too (Haven't heard Live at the Benaroya Hall yet, but I heard it's another damn good acoustic show). I guess playing guitar-driven hard rock gets old after it's 20th year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
