Pearl Jam - Severed Hand (Song of the Week)

by User Imageacostill on June 27th, 2007

I’ve chosen Pearl Jam’s “Severed Hand” for song of the week, because I just saw a TV ad for their new box set, Live at the Gorge 05/06, and they played a live version of “Severed Hand”. It reminded how awesome this song is and I immediately had to listen to it.

I first heard this song in April 2006 in a Montreal hotel room when Pearl Jam was on Saturday Night Live; I had to leave the next morning so I had to call it an early night . Anyways, I was instantly hooked when I heard the opening guitar. It appeared on Pearl Jam’s 2006 self-titled album and is a great driving song. The live version isn’t too bad either, especially with the addition of a light show, which Pearl Jam hardly does. A live version can be found on Pearl Jam’s Live at the Gorge 05/06 box set, which came out yesterday, June 26.

“Severed Hand” from last year’s Reading Festival
