Even if Eddie says it isn’t

Dark matter is a concept album It tells the story of a married couple who’s grown apart and must tell their children that mom and dad are separating and getting a divorce. With this in mind listen to the album again while reading the lyrics. Anyone who has been through this will see beat for beat that these are exactly the emotions you go through every step of the way. Gut punch!

Awesome episode/podcast!

I was psyched to hear my good friend (ok, I only met him once, after a show) Richard Stuverud on your show! He has an important place in Pearl Jam history, and is a great artist in his own right. Five stars!
