In a recent interview on the Trail 1033 radio podcast, Jeff Ament, the bassist of Pearl Jam, dashed the hopes of eager fans by revealing that the band’s highly anticipated new album is far from being completed. Contradicting Stone Gossard’s recent statement that the album was nearing the finish line, Ament cautioned against premature excitement.

According to Ament, as reported by Pearl Jam online, Pearl Jam has only managed to complete about half of the material for their twelfth studio album. While the existing songs show promise, Ament expressed uncertainty regarding which tracks will ultimately make the final cut. He divulged that he has been working on the album at producer Andrew Watt’s Los Angeles studios in recent weeks, but the creative process is far from over.

This was a huge jump in statements made as we originally thought the album was done when a photo leaked of the band, in which the photographer stated that the album was finished. Could Jeff simply be doing damage control?

The disappointing news continues, as Ament disclosed that once the album is complete, fans will have to exercise patience for another six to seven months before its release. Anticipated to hit the shelves no earlier than the summer or fall of 2024, the album’s delayed arrival is sure to leave fans longing for the band’s signature sound.

The revelation of this setback in Pearl Jam’s album production is undoubtedly disheartening for loyal supporters who have eagerly awaited new music from the iconic rock band. It appears that the meticulous attention to detail and desire for musical excellence, which have defined Pearl Jam’s career, are once again shaping the creative process and the timeline for their latest offering.

Though the road may be longer than expected, the destination promises to be worth the wait for fans longing to immerse themselves in the powerful, evocative music that only Pearl Jam can deliver.
