You guys still actively listening to these? I've prob listened to each 10 or so times. Good tunes, but what they have done for me is made me go and revisit the studio albums. The Vitalogy-Binaural run was amazing.

Next up is Spenno's retracked Riot Act.
ive still only listened to each of them 1 time until i find out if they are on the new album or not, i really doubt they will be on it, but just in case i am trying to forget about them for a while

I've put Pearl Jam on a break. Been catching up on the catalogs of Wilco and Mark Lanagan.

I'm listening to them both a lot. CC more than let it ride. If LB has songs on it that I want to listen to as much as I want to listen to these then it'll be a major success for me.

I'm trying to limit the number of listens just in case they're on LB I want it to feel fresh when I get the entire album. Meanwhile, if you had to rank the recent (new-old) songs that we've got so far, what would you give them? As a baseline, I consider 5-star songs to be GTF, In My Tree, I Got Shit, Corduroy.
4 - Of the Earth 3.5 - Mind Your Manners 3.5 - Cold Confession 3 - Lightning Bolt 2.5 - Let it Ride 1 - Future Days
London Soundcheck song has some serious potential to be a 3.5-4 star song, but it's just too hard to tell.

Of the earth and lightning bolt will go up or down depending on the studio version.
And ditto on the soundcheck song.
I think there's a universe in which the studio version of FD could kick your ass. It's probably not this one though.

Even without the piano, i'm finding the lyrics trite and cheesy. And the melody just plain "meh"
Who knows, maybe the music on the studio version will be so awesome i can look past that lol.
I think it conjures something for me. Yeah, it's cheesy and unremarkable but to me it creates a nice atmosphere. Maybe I don't need much from tracks like this. And I also think that the use of lyrics is more clever than we first gave it credit for at first, given the context. Only slightly more, mind. But enough to make me look again when we get the studio version. The context might improve it quite a lot, a little like a cheesy song as part of a darker film score can provide a nice amount of irony. Having said all this, I was hoping we'd get more irony from Backspacer if they wanted to go the cheesy route.

4.5 Let it Ride 4.5 Cold Confession
(These tracks aren't the most amazing thing ever, but they do sound like the Pearl Jam I loved before all of the brightly-coloured Target nonsense, hence the high score.)
3.75 - Of the Earth 3.5 - Mind Your Manners 3 - Lightning Bolt 2 - Future Days
(LB and FD will live or die in the studio.)

I'm not sure what the emperor is disapproving of here, but I do have confidence. I'll literally be thrilled if I'm able to keep those scores.

"Can No Longer Mind My Manners" I've got an unfortunate feeling we'll be let down Pearl Jam will disappoint again with all the new songs coming out What they've taken is more than a vow Their taking 5 star songs again and throwing them on a burning pile yeah yeah hay hay And to the fans they are saying Mind Your Manners I caught myself believing I needed Lightning Bolt and if its out there somewhere we sure could use it now Tried my patience, my patience tried Ten, Yield, No Code and I'm done and it makes me want to cry And to the fans they are saying Mind Your Manners Outtakes are playing... Self-realized in two thousand and three May not be another hit may not matter as much to me right around the corner could be bigger than we think Will they give us what we want or will they....something else? And to the fans they are saying Mind Your Manners Outtakes are playing...
