Vedder, speaking at a recent Grammys week listening party in Los Angeles, expressed his enthusiasm for the upcoming album, describing it as a culmination of their best efforts: “We still care about putting something out there that is meaningful and we hopefully think is our best work. No hyperbole, I think this is our best work.”

For fans eager to secure tickets, Pearl Jam has outlined two avenues. Firstly, members of the band’s official fan club, Ten Club, will have exclusive access to a presale via Ticketmaster Request. Additionally, enthusiasts can register for the Dark Matter World Tour 2024 registration sale, the sole method for general fans to participate in the ticket sale. Registration, however, does not guarantee access, with the deadline set for Sunday, February 18, at 11:59 PM local time.
