I meant it sarcastically in regard to every RMer placing it dead last in this thread.

The first time I heard Who You Are, I was riding shotgun in my girlfriend's hatch back while we were driving up to the Worlds of Fun amusement park. My best friend was laying down in the hatch back. He fucking HATED the song and wouldn't shut up about how dumb it was and how his favorite band had dissolved into total shit. I was blown away by how different it sounded and couldn't wait to hear more. I bought No Code the day it came out and listened to it in my basement, on repeat, for the better part of the day. My friend (the one from the hatch back) came over to listen to it with me when I first got it, but he left after the first time through. He was not pleased.

I can't wrap my head around people saying these are bad songs. I hear so many influences. This is not only the best Pearl Jam album (by a country mile) it's probably the best work Jack has done on any record/project since Earthquake Weather. I'm in love with this album. I hear Fela Kuti. I hear Neil Young. I hear the M-nut N-chan A-Rae Kindred Soul Core Trio. This is a group of musical visionaries expanding and playing and finding something new, which is so valuable and unexpected after the last two records, which, as good as they are in their best moments, are exactly expected and by the numbers. I was worried Pearl Jam had become bored and formulaic. But this album proves they're still willing to stretch themselves and redefine ther sound, even as they settle into "icon" status.

What a breath of fresh air this album is. Completely blown away. Even when it fails, it's still interesting. This could well end up being the thing that defines their career. Really, it could end up being the album they're remembered for. It reminds me of Bowie in his weird, experimental, "I don't give a fuck" best. "Habit" sucks though
