The tour will kick off with a pair of shows in St. Paul, Minnesota, on August 31 and September 2. The band will play two nights in Chicago, Fort Worth, and Austin as well, alongside one show in Indianapolis. Irish rockers Inhaler will serve as special guests in selected cities.

As part of the efforts to make the ticket sale process as transparent as possible, Pearl Jam teamed up with Live Nation to sell tickets with an “all-in” pricing model. This means that all the fees and added costs will be included in the ticket price that is displayed ahead of purchase. The model represents a departure from the practice of including additional costs of the ticket once the buyer proceeds to checkout. To avoid scalpers reselling the tickets at an inflatable price, the band will also make them non-transferable except for Chicago shows.

Pearl Jam will tour in support of their 2020 album Gigaton. The band confirmed they started with the work on the follow-up to Gigaton last year, but there haven’t been many details about the progress on the record since then.

Gigaton Listening Experience will be a one-day experience, taking place on March 25th in more than 200 Dolby Atmos theaters across the world. It will feature a high-quality playback of Gigaton in full alongside visuals curated and created by filmmaker and artist Evolve.

The full list of participating theaters is available on the group’s official website, while you can check out the trailer for the event below.

“It’s truly a unique way to experience this album,” said Gigaton producer Josh Evans. “I’m excited for fans to be able to immerse themselves in the sound and to hear the depth and layers of these songs and performances.”

Gigaton will be Pearl Jam’s 11th studio album and their first since 2013’s Lightning Bolt. So far, the band presented two singles from the record; “Dance of the Clairvoyants” and “Superblood Wolfmoon.” Following the release of the record, the group will embark on a worldwide tour.

“Can’t Deny Me” is loud, bursting with energy and knows exactly its purpose. This doesn’t sound like one of those songs that comes to songwriters in sleep or just strikes them out of nowhere in a blizzard of inspiration. It sounds like a track that needed a lot of work and started when someone said: “Hey, let’s do a political or protest type of song!?”

That’s one of the main flaws of “Can’t Deny Me”. It’s just like the band tried too much and wanted too much, which lead to the fact that the song doesn’t feel like a whole. It has all the right pieces: Vedder’s angry voice, sharp lyrics, great hook, and smart riffs, but they didn’t mesh together in a perfect way.

While there are remarks, “Can’t Deny Me” isn’t a bad song. On the contrary, it is a rather a good one. You’ll just have to listen to it several times before you reveal the appeal, but it is certainly there. Some will like the straightforward message, others will enjoy the music while there will be those who will like the whole package. In the end, the final verdict on the song will greatly depend on your expectations.

Our verdict is that “Can’t Deny Me” isn’t a song worth waiting five years for, and won’t be a Pearl Jam classic, but it still makes you turn up the volume a bit higher.
