I don't have he energy for speculation but I'd be suprised if his vocals haven't been cleaned up since 1992.
No doubt, but isn't autotuned a different beast from cleaning up in post processing?
I think they autotune on software after something's recorded, so it's post-recording at least. It's part of that cleaning-up.
Yeah, it just has a bad connotation because of the awful 100% autotune songs out there. Probably is used to a degree on most shit nowadays.

Yup. It's only a dance / RnB / hiphop convention to overuse it, really.

Hmmm, well I'm not sure a hipster would love Sirens that much.... Which makes me wonder, what's the over/under on how many times Pitchfork will use the word "cheesy" in their review for Lightning Bolt?

I think "Not Radiohead" is the term they use most often when reviewing most music.

True true, instead of the word "cheesy" they'll replace it with some long whimsical run-on sentence that makes no sense whatsoever but sounds really cool

Here's a little feedback from a normal person:
Got to talking about Pearl Jam with my supervisor the other day when Given to Fly came on pandora. She's pretty much a "casual" fan but owns all the albums through Riot Act... Says she doesn't really listen to much since Yield.
Anyways last night, I played the six songs without telling her what it was or anything. Her immediate reaction after the vocals came in on Getaway was "I'm glad Pearl Jam has managed to write new music and still sound like the same band after all these years."
After Sirens and lightning bolt - "when's this coming out I'm gonna definitely gonna pick it up"
Swallowed Whole - "can you burn me a copy of this!?!"
Her comments made me realize we're all way to boxed up in Pearl Jam fan land to really appreciate how fucking good they are.

Yeah, they'd never stoop so low as "cheesy." But I'd still really love to read their review. Just because.
