I think most of us like the jam at the end, only the enlightened few like the whole thing
I love the chorus now, though Im not as high on some of the parts in between

If any album qualified to be self titled, it’s this one. This showcases Pearl Jam so well.

Sorry if that high-res spiel in the no leak thread was for naught. Hopefully it'll show up soon. Pretty disappointed to see that I may have been waiting for no reason, but, that just makes me more excited to dive in. Looks like I waited for a monster of a listening experience.
We still make records to be listened to — not that everyone will listen to a record track one to twelve in a row or side A or Side B — but we still make 'em in case somebody does want to listen to it like that, that's how we make em…

The only firm skipper on the album for me.
It’s falling in my rankings too, but moreso because the rest of Gigaton keeps growing in my esteem, and my familiarity with SBWM is no longer an advantage. I’m finding the same thing happening with Dance (to a lesser degree).
No, are you kidding. Dance is brilliant.
I want a whole "concept" album full of Dances.
Dance of the Naysayers
Dance of the Superbloods
Dance of the Clairvoyants
Dance of the Escapists
Dance of Yourself
Dance of Seven O'Clock
Dance of More Denial
Dance of the Long Way
Dance of No Harm
Dance of Come and Go
Dance of the Round
Dance Across River
Yeah, not like that

Well, Backspacer does have one undeniable quality going for it - it's short.

They post this playlist: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=b600Ayg ... TJpLLy4S_E

but not the Visualizer?
Everything's perfectly all right now. We're fine. We're all fine here, now, thank you. How are you?
