Pearl Jam are releasing a new album, Gigaton, on March 27 via Monkeywrench/Republic. Now they shared its second single, the straight-forward rocker “Superblood Wolfmoon.” Last week you could hear a snippet of the song if you went to www.moon.pearljam.com and pointed your phone at the moon. Now you can hear the whole thing. Listen below, followed by the band’s upcoming tour dates.

Previously Pearl Jam shared Gigaton‘s first single, “Dance of the Clairvoyants,” via a video for the track.

Gigaton will be the band’s first new album in six-and-a-half years, since the October 2013 release of Lightning Bolt. Josh Evans and Pearl Jam produced the album. In 2018 Pearl Jam shared a new song, “Can’t Deny Me,” but it’s not featured on the album.

Gigaton‘s cover art features “Ice Waterfall,” a photo by Canadian photographer, filmmaker, and marine biologist Paul Nicklen taken in Svalbard, Norway. A previous press release explained that the image “features the Nordaustlandet ice cap gushing high volumes of meltwater.”

The band’s Mike McCready had this to say about the album in a previous press release: “Making this record was a long journey. It was emotionally dark and confusing at times, but also an exciting and experimental road map to musical redemption. Collaborating with my bandmates on Gigaton ultimately gave me greater love, awareness and knowledge of the need for human connection in these times.”
