Pearl Jam new CD comes ouit tomorrow

Are there any fans left out there besides me?

Here is part of the Rolling Stone review for the CD, first in 4 years for them and they call it here, the best in the last decade

Looking forward to it




Wartime, for everything else that's wrong with it, brings out the best in Pearl Jam: the power-chord brawn, contrary righteousness and metallic-KO songwriting sense. The band's second and third albums, 1993's bluntly titled Vs. and 1994's Vitalogy, are as good as modern rock-in-opposition gets: shotgun guitars, incendiary bass and drums, and Eddie Vedder's scalded-dog howl, all discharged in backs-to-the-wall fury and union. This album, Pearl Jam's first studio release in four years and their best in ten, is more of that top electric combat.

Saw Pearl Jam live once in concert and they did an amazing version of Pink Floyd 'Wish you were here'... Favourite song has to be 'Daughter' tho...

Didn't really like the new album all that much after one listen, but I'll have to give it at least 2 more before I can really say if its good or not. I'm hearing too many media types hype this up though as PJ's return to greatness, hopefully it lives up to expectations.

Bought the CD yesterday and listened to it a couple times

I am lukewarm on it so far, it does sound alot more like their older stuff, but not to that quality, IMO

Will keep listening to it and hope it grows on me more
