This is the first album in a long time where Eddie is an assett instead of a detriment, HOWEVER his lyrics are still a weak point, especially his affinity for words like "hypnotonic resonance, undertow," etc, or really anything involving oceans

I dunno about previous albums. Lightning Bolt took a while to grow on me after the last 3 songs on Backspacer, but songs like Pendulum and Infallible are good lyrically. This is a bit specific and most people won't be able to relate to this, but Mind Your Manners sums up my feelings on the Blairites.

It’s so damn hard to actually rank the songs on Gigaton because I legitimately love all of them. I’m quickly coming to the conclusion that this is Pearl Jam’s most consistent album. There’s not a skipper in the bunch. Add the new track, “Get it Back”, to the bunch and it’s simply remarkable what Pearl Jam has accomplished here. If I’m honest with myself, I’m pretty sure Gigaton has become my favorite Pearl Jam album. I’m gonna try to rank the tracks, but in reality they are pretty much all 4-5 star songs in my book.

Quick Escape
Dance of the Clairvoyants
Take the Long Way
Get It Back
Superblood Wolfmoon
Who Ever Said
Never Destination
River Cross
Retrograde
Comes Then Goes
Seven O’Clock
Alright
Buckle Up

Agree that the record is consistent. But there aren't a lot of "skippers" on most of their albums. At least, for me. But, yeah, there isn't a "bad" song on the album.

This is sitting comfortably in the top tier category, for sure.

"skip" would suggest you are landing on a song after River Cross. But since there is no song after are you really skipping this track? No.

Of course you have a 6 disc changer in your car.

I'm not even sure I could readily find 6 CDs.
