Ten is much more accessible than Vitalogy. Outside of Better Man, you have to work at those songs, or let them work at you. There's such a large portion of the listening public that isn't interested in difficult -- or even slightly challenging -- music.
I was astonished by the intensely negative reaction that "Evacuation" got, and continues to get from typical boneheads.
It's like, how DARE Pearl Jam record a song with time signature changes in it!
Agree completely. I've always loved that song. The 1,2,3 punch of Binaural's opening is perfection.

My friend tends to be one of those "typical boneheads." He was living in Germany when Binaural dropped, so he got the record before I did. He called me with a track by track breakdown. And even HE likes Evacuation.

It's not about time signatures. That song just sucks.

That's a really great album though. I am not really aware of its cultural status. Maybe it's because it's Lauryn Hill's only album and she went crazy shortly afterwards.
