the poll will be up past 60 or 70 votes saying a song is great, yet there's countless pages and thousands of posts taking a 'thinking mans' shit on the song in question.

Baffling.
Those votes are bought by the 10C and/or the band.
it's how we pay for the server
I have absolutely no issue with that.

I think RA got so much hate mostly because people didn't get what they expected. That and no big anthems.

I hated Binaural for ages, not Riot Act, though I took a while to love it.

i loved it at first but then got tired of it, didnt listen to it really at all for a couple of years and then when i did listen again i loved it, still fairly low on my list, maybe 5th or 6th, but i am a fan of it.

I love I am Mine, Cropduster, Can't Keep, You Are. I enjoy Save You and All or None. 1/2 Full is okay too.

that's almost exactly how it happened for me. upon the first listen i thought it was a return to form :P after Binaural (and Last Kiss) but i soon realized that my anticipation was fooling me into thinking that this was a top-tier PJ record. several years after that i thought it was bottom of the barrel stuff but now i think it's got at least a few tracks that make it worthwhile (Can't Keep, Save You, Cropduster, I Am Mine, Bu$hleaguer, Helphelp, 1/2 Full, Green Disease and All or None, namely) but not a lot of them fall in the stellar PJ category (Can't Keep might be the only one).

It's just a Vedder solo song rehashed.

I remember it being hated for years probably on the pit more than here though. A lot of people had an almost irrational hate for it. It's subdued on purpose and this seemed the main issue people had with it.
