Pearl Jam Mix Tape Challenge 2015: Congrats Bada!

[stip]

Pilate is a decent song that is overly maligned. BRY, on the other hand, is great. Excellent use of double tracked vocals, the first pearl jam song to really have a sense of fun, and the wonderfully sloppy guitars.

I don't know how someone could vote for a mix that has Crown of Thorns, Brother(Instrumental), and Let the Records Play, over a mix that has Get Right, Someday at Christmas, and Black Red Yellow.

I had no issues with let the records play, and I understand thematically why the mix author did what they did, but including a live cover in the middle of the mix didn't sit quite right with me, (same with including the times of trouble demo and the brother instrumental).

having said that the no way - rival - all or none sequence was strong, and I say that not really caring about two of those songs.

Yeah live cuts in the middle really hurt these, in my opinion.

I don't think this will give away which mix is mine, but I have no live cuts in mine this time around.

the forest is more important than any one tree

Team chud.
