Listening to off he goes on headphones the other day. Really landed for me. Beautiful playing and perfect production on that one.

"Pearl Jam would refrain from releasing anything as strange and innovative as No Code ever again, just as Radiohead would draw back from the radicalism on their post-Kid A records."

If they are anything like the previous HDTracks releases, they will be brickwalled garbage. (In other words, completely worthless.)

For digital file copies, the mastered for iTunes versions of those are just fine. Significant improvements over the old cd masters, anyway.

Re: No Code: Official Album Thread
I hadn't picked up No Code until about 2001-02, I was a PJ fan before that but just ten/vs stuff. Now I celebrate their entire catalogue. Anywho when I first listened to No Code I quickly dismissed it as their worst album to date however after repeated listens it really grew on me. Lately Ive been really into Around the Bend its such a beautiful/haunting song. I love it.
