Pearl Jam have found themselves in a bit of hot water for their latest move – a gig poster depicting the rotting corpse of Donald Trump being eaten by a bald eagle in front of a burning White House.
The rockers, who have previously voiced dislike for the President, posted the artwork, designed by Jeff Ament together with artist Bobby Brown, on their social media ready for their show in Missoula, Montana, which took place on 13 August.
Republican politician Matt Rosendale later voiced his disgust at the pic, branding it a blatant display of extremism.
The artwork particularly touched a nerve of Republicans as the gig also aimed to raise funds for the re-election campaign of Democrat Denator Jon Tester.
