I still think this is the best album they made since the 90s. There are six albums I think are truly great and its the first four, ST, and Gigaton. It's incredible that they were able to do this after LB which I think I liked better than Backspacer at the time but now like much less.

Who Ever Said is an awesome opener, but didn't seem that great live sadly from the clip I saw. It's amazing on the album though.

Also I still love DOTC

I'm surprised you don't group Yield with Ten --> No Code.


I do, compared to BInaural and Riot Act, which I legitimately don't like. I like Yield, it's just rarely my choice of which album to listen to. It has some solid songs and a small handful of REALLY good songs, but it still comes across as more average to me, compared to the ones before. I do think that the time from Ten->Yield is when Pearl Jam was overall really solid

Dance of the Clairvoyants is two and a half years old. the excitement of it being new and exciting has now officially worn off. this is still one of the best songs pearl jam has ever written, probably somewhere in the top 20 of all of their songs. that alone is amazing, but the rest of this album is great, too. this is almost like the start of a new era of pearl jam.

Seriously re-think Binaural. Get depressed and smoke some weed or something.

Hopefully. I agree with your assessment.

Solid list. Quick Escape reminds me of their Ten sound (a very good thing for me), and I find myself wondering if the people that don't like it so much are the same ones that don't care for Ten that much.

Quick Escape's great. To me it sounds nothing like Ten though.

I like Ten, but yeah, QE sounds more like Vs or Yield to me for whatever reason. I liked the song at first but it's a little grating these days. Maybe it bounces back. I hope so.

These live versions are fine but the interesting thing is how much Josh K supports parts of the song. I do like that this era of PJ have the two Josh’s adding colour but also hearing the live versions, these songs have very cool structures for instance Who Ever Said is great but just sounds a bit pieced together on the album itself.

I love this era of the band. All my friends used to love PJ but dropped off over the past 10 years so it is bittersweet to have this album click like this. I was supposed to be going to Hyde Park today but could not due to other commitments but I am back loving PJ lately.
