I just listened to the live River Cross again

I really love it, it gives me the emotional reaction I used to have with PJ; I can't wait to hear it

word salad!! too many syllables!! I can't imagine why you wouldn't take out the word "like" to make the sentence much smoother

I cannot imagine a world in which this is better than the first 7 albums, but I'm very hopeful this will be better than the last 3.

He and I have the same gripes about the last decade, and he seems to point to all the strong parts that other reviewers have already noted.
Do Stone and Matt actually sing their songs?
Left out Sea. Hear. Now. at the end of their article.
Seems somewhat poorly researched/written.

this reviewer somewhat predictably dislikes Binaural and Riot Act (I don't) and puts Ten as #1 (I don't) but yes I would be thrilled to put Gigaton in the middle, or even just above the last three

I can definitely imagine that you can imagine this being the best pearl jam album.

Yeah, agreed.

It starts off with the right tone: "Admit it, you were worried about this one, right?"
