While chatting with Kerrang and NME, Stone Gossard talked about how is life of Pearl Jam right now (“The band’s in a great place. From my perspective, you can hear the vitality in Dark Matter and the energy of it – we’re clearly excited about the music. The new songs are sounding good next to the old songs”), the mystery about Got To Give (“I love that. Let’s go with that! There’s something special about that song”), a possible Vitalogy 30th anniversary reissue (“I’m sure there’s a reissue that somebody’s talking about”) and the new Painted Shield album.
