How fucking dare you speak about Binaural like that you fucking rube
It's decent enough. But clearly a step down from Ten- Yield.

Life Wasted is excellent.

If having mostly excellent songs is a requirement for an album being excellent , wouldnt binaural not be excellent since most of those songs are solid instead of excellent?

EACCCUEAAATTTTIIIIOOONNNN!

Evacuation is a great song, one of the best on Binaural, which is a great album and not at all a step down in quality from PJ’s previous output.

I really like *insert band name here*, but then I think of *insert lesser-liked album here* and it really makes me reconsider my fandom of *insert band name here* and my love for *their best album here*.

Is Binaural excellent, solid or an enigma?

Breakerfall" solid
"Gods' Dice" solid to excellent
"Evacuation" solid to excellent
"Light Years" solid
"Nothing as It Seems. Excellent
"Thin Air" not bad
"Insignificance" solid
"Of the Girl[*]" solid
"Grievance" solid to excellent
"Rival[*]" solid
"Sleight of Hand[*]" solid
"Soon Forget[*]" not bad
"Parting Ways" solid

I just don't understand how an album can be shitty if it's listened even semi-frequently from start to finish. While that certainly doesn't make an album "excellent" is means it can't be shitty.

Can our RM historians look into the Stockholm Syndrome/Delusional Critique of Pearl Jam? Is it actually new to RM or just something I haven't noticed until more recently (by recently I mean the last two years or so)?
