Eddie Vedder - Earthling

[DeeDee]

Try is the best track.

Agree 100%. What a blast of a song! It reminds me a bit of the Nirvana track "Ain't It a Shame" (from the With the Lights Out box), but more polished of course.

There are at least half a dozen tracks here I really enjoyed. Better than I was expecting for sure.

Try is also my favorite. So glad to read/see that people are liking this more than expected.

Count me in!

Try is amazing.

That’s Stevie wonder counting off try

The 1,2,34? That’s Olivia vedder

Why does Stevie Wonder sound like an 8 year boy when he counts of "1,2,3,4"?

[vedder316]

I dig this record. It’s not a great work by any means, but a fun, fun listen.

Surprised at the hate Picture gets. I mean at the very least, I’m loving Sir Elton’s hammering away on the ivories in the last :48

I like this album a lot but I have to admit, Try might be one of my least favorites so far. Picture is ok, like some others here, I don’t care for duets. Music is good.

[DeeDee]

I'm not a fan of Eddie's punk rock side, that's why I don't love Good and evil and Rose of Jericho, but I've got to say this:

Both songs are way more convincing than Never Destination, Supersonic, Can't deny me and so on.

With PJ, those kind of songs sound stagnated, here you can hear Eddie and the boys having fun, and that's key.

Well that certainly is a possibility too, dude.

I’m getting a lot of Last Soldier vibes from Fallout Today and I’m liking it!

[Chris_H_2]

upon further reflection, invincible is my favorite. i keep going back to that one.

So I just turned 38 and this album has been a great early birthday present. The thing that makes me happiest besides the fact that the songs are really good and Ed sounds great, is how most people here are loving or at least liking the album. It's a bit of a downer when others are shitting on music you enjoy listening to so I'm thankful this album has something in it for most of you guys.

fallout today is like a mellow far behind

ish

and also is top 2 for me on this album

[i got bugs]

I like the kid rock n sheryl crow version of picture better than the eddie n elton version

[Release_Me]

Still waiting for Stip's review though!

[DeeDee]

We are witnessing an album without a single fade out.

Whay a joy.

Still waiting for Stip's review though!

I'm so pumped to hear his thoughts. I could really see it going either way for him. :fingerscrossed:

Happy birthday! My son just celebrated his 9th and last month I celebrated my 46th. I'm such the ideal demographic for the "dad rock" version of Eddie Vedder, lol. So glad you like this album and it's been meaningful for you- same for me!
