Jeff Ament/Monkeywrench RecordsPearl Jam bassist Jeff Ament‘s will release a new album called Heaven/Hell with his solo project Ament on May 10. The album includes the previously released single “Safe in the Car,” which also features Pearl Jam’s Mike McCready and Matt Cameron, plus indie folk musician Angel Olsen on vocals.
Speaking to Rolling Stone about the origins of the album, Ament says, “I usually end up having a group of songs that goes to [Pearl Jam], and then there are songs that don’t feel right, or they feel too personal.”
“Maybe I get too far down the road with them lyrically, and I’m either apprehensive to give them to [Eddie Vedder], or it just feels better for it to be in my voice,” he adds. “You keep working on these songs, and all of a sudden, you have maybe a little group of three or four.”
Rolling Stone is also premiering the video for “Safe in the Car,” a grindhouse-like visual that stars Ament manically driving through a variety of natural disasters.
Here is the Heaven/Hell track list:
“The Noise the Noise”
“The Door”
“Safe in the Car”
“Hyperphagia”
“Drugs”
“Moment of Impact”
“The Voices”
“Somewhere”
“Are you Truing?”
