I said "thank you" to those that sent me a link and paid it forward.

According to my stats, asking for a link was my first post. But I've read the board daily for years. I guess I like reading about Pearl Jam but not talking about Pearl Jam.

Anyway, the album is good. Thank you, Internet Strangers.

Quick Escape into Alright is currently my favorite transition. Breathtaking.

Retrograde - not in love with this on first listen, a bit like Sirens.

River Cross - some good and some lesser choices here. Very atmospheric. I like it.

one of the reviews said "this is the album that should have been called Pearl Jam"

and I like the title, but agree with this sentiment; this album is a real showcase of everything latter-day PJ is capable of

Hello everyone

this is so good to read and it would of course be even better if someone could PM me although this is my first post. Great times.

River Cross feels like the song they wished they had to end the self-titled album instead of Come Back and Inside Job
(patriotic choking noises)
