Pearl Jam release new song ‘Running’

PEARL JAM have released a brand new song!

The new song, titled Running, is taken from the veteran American grunge band’s upcoming new album, Dark Matter, which is scheduled to be released in April this year.

Listen to Running here: 

Speaking about the upcoming album, vocalist/guitarist Eddie Vedder says, “I’m getting chills, because I have good memories. We’re still looking for ways to communicate. 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.”

Bassist Jeff Ament adds, “what Ed said about getting us in a room at this point, we felt like we were about to make a really important record. A lot of that had to do with the atmosphere Andrew set up. He has encyclopedic knowledge of our history, not only as a band and how we wrote songs, but as players. He could pinpoint things we did on old songs to the point where I was like, ‘What the fuck is he talking about?’. His excitement was contagious. He’s a force. I just want to say thanks for keeping us on track. I couldn’t be prouder of us as a band. I feel so grateful for the fans, but mostly for my brothers and these people I’ve made music with.”

Dark Matter is set for release on April 19th via Monkeywrench Records/Republic Records. Pre-orders are available now and can be purchased here.
