This has the weakest opening of any Pearl Jam album. The first three songs are all meh. Picks up with Light Years though.

Breakerfall/Gods’ Dice/Evacuation is definitely stronger than Backspacer’s start and Lightning Bolt as well.

what was the deal with this with the different producer and then they brought in BOB

I always felt like the first 3 could have sounded much better on the album and it would have made for a very different experience

NAIS' lyrics were written by Jeff, about growing up in Montana?

it's too clunky and calculated for the heart on sleeve sentiment in the chorus. The first verse is overwritten, too. Good bridge though, and I do like the second verse

Light Years is a classic to me, and one of the seven or eight Binaural songs that should be counted among the band's absolute best. Its a beautiful, powerful song.
