Of the content of the album, McCready said inspiration was taken from Pink Floyd and Punk Rock, adding that the record is ‘experimental’. He said: ‘I would say as a cliché answer it’s kind of a logical extension of what ‘Backspacer’ was. But I think there’s a little bit more experimental stuff going on. There’s a Pink Floyd vibe to some of it, there’s a punk rock edge to other stuff.’.
Pearl Jam also announced a North American Tour starting in October. Scroll down to see the 40’s trailer for ‘Lightning Bolt’, the band first release since 2009, and to stream a new song , ‘Mind Your Manners’.
