Pearl Jam's new album, Dark Matter, will be released on April 19th.
The group has released the title track as the first single that comes with a visualizer featuring light painting art by Alexandr Gnezdilov, who did the cover and the artwork for the album. Watch it now on YouTube.
The album was produced by Andrew Watt, who produced Eddie Vedder's last solo album Earthling. The band says that when they set up shop at Rick Rubin's Shangri-La Studios in Malibu, they had a "burst of inspiration" that allowed them to do the basic tracks in just three weeks.
The day after Dark Matter is released is Record Store Day, and the band says they'll be releasing as special edition of the album on that day to independent record stores.
Dark Matter is Pearl Jam's 12th album. Their last one was Gigaton in 2020.
