Pearl Jam Reach a Rock and Roll Sprint on New Song ‘Running’


Pearl Jam have shared the roaring new single "Running" from their upcoming album 'Dark Matter.'

“Running” is a two-minute blast of break-neck rock and roll, punctuated by a heavy, half-time breakdown and a scorching guitar solo. Eddie Vedder delivers a characteristically mighty vocal performance as well, bellowing during the bridge — “Living in the shadows, crossing my fingers/A date with the gallows and a reprieve not looking likely” — before letting out a throat-scorching hallow during the final refrain, “You got me running!” A statement on the band’s website said Dark Matter “channels the shared spirit of a group of lifelong creative confidants and brothers in one room playing as if their very lives depended on it.”
