“I can’t tell you how proud I am about this group of songs,” explains Jeff Ament.“As you know, we took our time and that benefited us taking more chances. ‘Dance’ was a perfect storm of experimentation and real collaboration, mixing up the instrumentation and building a great song, and Ed writing some of my favorite words yet, around Matt’s killer drum pattern. Did I mention Mike’s insane guitar part and that Stone is playing bass on this one? We’ve opened some new doors creatively and that’s exciting.”
As previously announced, Pearl Jam will release their much-anticipated eleventh studio album, Gigaton, on Monkeywrench Records/Republic Records on March 27, 2020 in the US. Internationally, the album will be released and distributed by Universal Music Group. Produced by Josh Evans and Pearl Jam, Gigaton marks the band’s first studio album since GRAMMY award-winning, Lightning Bolt, which was released on October 15, 2013.
The second video from LAMB OF GOD guitarist MARK MORTON’s new solo EP – a cover of the Pearl Jam hit “Black” featuring vocalist Mark Morales – has been revealed today.
Watch the video here:
“The early ‘90s were such an important and vibrant time for rock music in general, and I feel like ‘Black’ is one of the great songs from that era”, MORTON says. “Our approach in covering it was to present a super stripped-down version, sticking the essence of the song. It’s got a very lonely feel to it and Mark Morales delivered an absolutely incredible vocal performance.”
Ether, MORTON’s second solo offering, was released this month via Rise Records. The primarily acoustic EP is comprised of three original tracks and two covers that showcase MORTON’s diversity as a musician. As with last year’s solo debut, Anesthetic, the guitarist enlisted the talents of various musicians and vocalists to bring his songs to life.
Morales, who regularly tours as part of MORTON’s live band, sings two songs on the EP – the original track “All I Had To Lose” and “Black.” Additional vocals are provided by Lzzy Hale on The Black Crowes cover “She Talks To Angels,” Killswitch Engage/Light the Torch vocalist Howard Jones on “Love My Enemy” and Moon Tooth singer John Carbone on “The Fight.” Ether was produced and mixed by Josh Wilbur (Lamb of God, Gojira, Trivium).

Designed as an 8-bit game inspired by the iconic performances at Wrigley Field, the game features all the band members as baseball players.

Rick Parashar, the owner of Seattle’s London Bridge Studio who helped shape the ’90s alternative sound by working on seminal records by such bands as PEARL JAM and ALICE IN CHAINS, died on August 14th at the age of 50, according to ultimateclassicrock.com.
According to Northwest Music Scene, Parashar suffered a pulmonary embolism when a blood clot in his leg moved up into his lung, restricting the blood flow from his heart. Parashar died at his home in Seattle’s Queen Anne neighborhood.
With his brother Raj, Rick Parashar built London Bridge in 1985. Over the next few years, many bands from the nascent Seattle scene began to coalesce around the studio. Three of the defining albums of the grunge era — Temple of the Dog’s self-titled album, Pearl Jam’s ‘Ten’ and Alice in Chains’ ‘Sap’ — were produced by Parashar.
In later years, he worked on such commercially successful records as 3 Doors Down‘s ‘Away from the Sun,’ Nickelback‘s ‘Silverside Up’ and Bon Jovi‘s ‘Have a Nice Day.’
