In his review of Dark Matter, the new Pearl Jam album dropping this Friday, Ryan Leas identified “Wreckage” as one of the tracks that calls back to the band’s earliest records, when the grunge-birthed classic rockers were arguably the biggest band in the world. Today the song is out, and it’s indeed a lot more appealing than “Dark Matter” and “Running,” self-consciously heavy songs that Ryan rejected as “clunky attempts at bygone ferocity.” I’m no Pearl Jam superfan, but this is the first song from them in decades that reminds me why they were such a cornerstone of ’90s rock.
