Pearl Jam will release a brand new album this Spring.
Titled Dark Matter, the album is the follow-up to 2020’s Gigaton and will be the legendary Seattle band’s twelfth studio effort overall.
Helmed by the Grammy-Award winning producer Andrew Watt (Iggy Pop, The Rolling Stones), the album was recorded in Malibu. Of the process of capturing the kinetic energy of Pearl Jam, a press release heralding the album declares the recording process had the goal of apprehending the sound of, “…the band playing together with a burst of inspiration.”
Singer Eddie Vedder chimed in on the same press release, declaring: “We’re at this time in our lives when you could do it or you could not do it, but we still care about putting something out there that is meaningful and we hopefully think is our best work. No hyperbole, I think this is our best work.”
Pearl Jam will be heading out on an extensive World Tour and on selected dates will be supported by Pixies, Richard Ashcroft, Glen Hansard, Deep Sea Diver and the Murder Capitol.
Dark Matter will be out April 19.
