Too bad it wasn't one, musically.
'Riot Act' doesn't mean the same thing as 'Riot'. It was a fine 'Riot Act', even if it wasn't the 'Riot' that some people wanted based on a misreading of the title.

'Lightning Bolt' is a horrible title. 'Lightning' is a horrible title. I wouldn't be unhappy with 'Bolt'. But basically, any of these titles would prove to me that PJ aren't even trying anymore.

It's a good point you have there. But at least there's some intrigue there. I don't know what pearl jam is other than probably sperm. But 'Lightning Bolt' sounds like a superhero name invented by a 6 year old. In fact I think my stepkid called one of his creations Lightning Bolt once.

What if some of the letter are backwards and randomly capitalized?

I've been read the riot act many times. I'm well aware what it means, and that record was neither of those meanings.

That would look good with 'BOLT' but terrible with Lightning Bolt.

Plenty of the songs fit that theme perfectly...

If it really is called what the new rumor is saying it's called I might just laugh every time I think of the album. It's just the association with that crazy fantasy nerds in the woods video that I'll never be able to not think of.

I can't tell my friends, or my dad, that the new Pearl Jam album is called 'Lightning Bolt'.

This is beyond BS. Ever heard of "Ten"? It's just named after the jersey of a basketball player. Yeah that's really well thought out...... oh yeah and all those self titled albums from bands like the beatles, led zeppelin, etc ... they just couldn't even think of a title so they just left it as is .....

I like the artwork though, including the gun and the cross.

What the fuck? I don't know what planet you're on if you think 'Ten' is an embarrassing title on the level of 'Lightning' fucking 'Bolt'. Don't try to tell me that every effortless title sounds like shit.
