Pearl Jam<\/a> guitarist Stone Gossard explained how the group\u2019s upcoming album, Gigaton<\/i>, captures \u201cthe spirit of the band\u201d in a new interview with Zane Lowe on Beats 1<\/a> radio.<\/p>\n

The first single from Gigaton<\/i>, \u201cDance of the Clairvoyants,\u201d<\/a> found the band exploring funkier and more experimental sonic territories, with Gossard saying the track exemplifies \u201cthe outer edge of something that we haven\u2019t tried before, a new way of configuring our sort of collaborative talents.\u201d But he went on to note that \u201cDance of the Clairvoyants\u201d is just one of several flavors on the record.<\/p>\n

\u201cThere\u2019s definitely some really straight-ahead rock songs,\u201d he said. \u201cThere\u2019s some very spare and very simple ballads. It\u2019s got it all, I think. And it\u2019s really us. We really did it by ourselves. [Eddie Vedder] did a great job. There was a pile of songs and he sort of took and really, really, in the last two months, mixed and sort of selected the tracks that really were going to be special. And he did such a great job of bringing everybody\u2019s personalities out. It was probably different than any of us would\u2019ve made individually, but it really captures, I think, the spirit of the band.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gossard also touched on Vedder\u2019s lyrics, which he called \u201cstunning\u201d and said grapple with the weight of the world in clever and abstract ways. \u201cHe\u2019s not going to come out and say exactly in sort of very plain language maybe what you might think after reading the newspaper,\u201d Gossard said. \u201cBut I think that his mysticism and his way of using words and art and music is a powerful sort of tonic. I think that underlying it all is going to continue to be a hopeful and beautiful but at times tragic message.\u201d<\/p>\n

Gigaton<\/i> will be released March 27th, and it marks Pearl Jam\u2019s first album since 2013\u2019s Lightning Bolt<\/i>. The band is set to embark on a 16-date North American tour<\/a> March 18th in Toronto.<\/p>\n
