The board's server will undergo upgrade maintenance tonight, Nov 5, 2014, beginning approximately around 10 PM ET. Prepare for some possible down time during this process.
That's the problem when you take 7 years to make an album. It needs to be a statement representing every aspect of Pearl Jam. There needs to be a punk song, an anthem, a midtempo song, a ballad, a single weird song... They can't wait 7 years and then have an album full of Buckle Ups. (I don't even think they or more than 1% of the Pearl Jam fan community would even want such a thing, that's only me and some other people on theskyiscrape)
Releasing albums more often would enable them to be more creative and not make their albums so much by the numbers I think. There wouldn't be so many expectations then.
Really interesting points. Are they bound by the past?
nah, bound out of obligation though, Cause thats all we've got.
I wish Pearl Jam would have made an album full of songs like Around The Bend. It's a sound they explore not often enough. Imagine an album full of Around The Bends, Parachutes, Buckle Ups and Strangest Tribes.
That would have been very interesting. Doubt it will ever happen.
I'm hoping Stone's upcoming Painted Shield album with Mason Jennings scratches this itch. Apparently Stone wrote all the music.

I would like them to try what Wilco did with Stars Wars and Smilco. Two albums released only one year apart that sound like they're not trying to prove anything at all but not in a lazy way. It's Wilco having fun without making a huge artistic statement which produced my two favorite records of them since A Ghost Is Born. I don't want Pearl Jam to only make records in this way but I think it would work out for them.

Yes, please. Writing duties delegated to a one S. Gossard, preferably.
