when the drums kick in in "lukin"

That is a pretty great moment

How soothing, yet slightly sinister the lyrics in Around The Bend are.

The outro in Off He Goes, from "He is off again..."

Who You Are when Ed's harmony part splits into a second melody at, "I'll will say you've got a part" till it peaks at "Who you are". 2:27-2:45

In My Tree when the wave crashes after Ed says, "still got it".

In My Tree.

this.

I listened to No Code last night for the first time in a long time. I've been pretty much listening to St Vincent exclusively for the past two months. And it's been even longer than that since I've spun any Pearl Jam.

Anyway, No Code is pretty great.

The best part of No Code is Sometimes

It’s not the best song on the album. But after their last few albums what a bold and effective statement that song is opening the album. I love it. You instantly think “Wow. What is THIS?” It’s just such a great statement of intent.

And then the transition into Hail Hail is the exclamation point.

Always loved how Habit comes crashing in after Off He Goes

I don't think there's a better 1-2 punch song combo on any album that displays the musical diversity of Pearl Jam such as Off He Goes & Habit

Sometimes/Hail Hail has the benefit of doing both styles well

Had my eyes peeled both wide open, and I got a glimpse
Of my innocence... got back my innocence...
Baby got it, still got it

I agree.
