It was clever, that’s for damn sure.

I laugh at almost everything. Couldn’t tell you why but I didn’t laugh at this.

I laughed for about five minutes straight at my own post on the previous page but it just sailed past with no reaction.

Laughing at my own posts as I hit submit is one of the purest forms of simple joy I think I’ve ever felt.

Hey that's great that PJ got one of the lead reviews in Mojo. They dont get a whole lot of coverage in the British press, outside of the metal mags. Normally a review in Mojo or Q is just a cursory couple of paragraphs and a 3* rating. So this is very welcome.

Keith Cameron, the MOJO reviewer, is a big fan of the band.

He’s written some good stuff about how he (as someone who came out of the 80s/90s indie rock scene) “learned to stop worrying and love Pearl Jam.”

That's a good article. Not seen it before. Niall at Q is another big fan but sadly Q seems to overlook them on the whole.

Q have gotten better with recent albums. I think PJ didn’t play the game of giving them much content either but I recall a big piece around the time of BS.


These reviews are making me hopeful of a good PJ album. I wonder is it too much to think they will release it early considering everything that is going on?

That Italian site started an actual petition for them to release it early. I’m sure that’ll work.
