PJ lost it a very long time ago. Unfortunately, their last decent album was “Backspacer”

There are two Pearl Jam bands. The one that recorded Ten….one of the preeminent rock albums. And then there is the other band….that recorded almost everything else. That band…I don’t really care to go back to listen to other than to check if I’ve missed something that maybe time would reveal. Sadly, no. The first band still records a song from time to time…but few and far between. This….is still the way of things.

Who is the same as they were 30 years ago? It would be pretty sad if we were, no? It’s a good album, not great. I’ve been a fan since 1991 so def a little biased. But it’s clearly unfair to compare this work to what they did when they were in their early 20’s. Good effort from a great band. Still a fan…
I love yous forever

Something about bands that are coming up and the struggle to make it. Once you make it and get older, you don’t really have the struggles that relate to the younger audience. I feel like this is pj now compared to then.
Best since the 90’s

The last three tracks could have been left off and the record would have been nearly flawless. Something Special is cute but pulls you out of the atmosphere they created otherwise, and the last two tracks are straight up filler, just sounding like old dudes in a band (a really tight band, but, um, nothing special.) I love that Mike McCready showed up to the studio remembering that he was a guitar god, and that once again we need subtitles for Eddie’s lyrics, that usually means he’s saying something important. I do miss the more raw drum sounds from back in the Dave Abbruzzese days, Matt is a beast but the drums are over-produced. All in all though, it’s the first album of theirs that hasn’t bored me to tears since No Code.
NO memorable hooks

Band rocks, guitars are screechingly loud, but sadly no memorable songs or melodies. Not very good
Something special

Bought the vinyl and it’s spectacular. Can’t wait to see them soon in Baltimore.

Everyone has their own opinions. I personally love the album.
