Stip, besides first and last, your list almost looks randomized

Three and a half years later, I think this is still pretty close.

Who Ever Said has probably grown on me enough to push out Speed of Sound.

I would give the band a lot of credit if they released a Lost Dogs 2 but called it PRAMG without a single explanation of what that means.

I don't know what it means that 30% of my list is technically unreleased

Dance of the Clairvoyants
Cold Confession
Parachutes
Unemployable
Take the Long Way
10 Billion Years
Marker in the Sand
Let it Ride
The End
Johnny Guitar

Honorable Mention: Come Back (don't @ me!)

Come Back is great. No @'ing here.

According to the PJ Ranker:

Dance of the Clairvoyants
Severed Hand
Quick Escape
Pendulum
Seven O’Clock
Inside Job
Retrograde
Life Wasted
Of the Earth
Dark Matter

Weirdly don’t know if I would agree with this list.

Did the ranker without any filters just to see in comparison:

Insignificance
Nothing As It Seems
Immortality
Release
Porch
Present Tense
Red Mosquito
Do the Evolution

The what now?

First half of Big Wave is totally meh and thus very low in my Pearl Jam rankings. Second half is totally awesomesauce. Why do they have to have songs like this?

First PJ song I can recall being actively embarrassed by.

bump for Dark Matter

On initial consideration, which S/T, Backspacer, LB, or Gigaton songs would even compete with most of DM?

My possible selections-

Life Wasted
Comatose
Marker in the Sand
Army Reserve
The Fixer
Speed of Sound
Unthought Known
Force of Nature
The End
Mind Your Manners
Pendulum
Who Ever Said
DOTC
Superblood Wolfmoon
Alright
Retrograde

I think I'd put every one of the DM songs except Running and Something Special above every single other PRAMG song. And probably only 4 or 5 of the ones I listed could compete with any of the top 5 on DM.

Using the ranker to make this official here is my top 20

Waiting for Stevie (Dark Matter)
Dance of the Clairvoyants (Gigaton)
World Wide Suicide (Pearl Jam)
Scared of Fear (Dark Matter)
Life Wasted (Pearl Jam)
Superblood Wolfmoon (Gigaton)
Mind Your Manners (Lightning Bolt)
Lightning Bolt (Lightning Bolt)
Who Ever Said (Gigaton)
Dark Matter (Dark Matter)
Comatose (Pearl Jam)
Wreckage (Dark Matter)
Force of Nature (Backspacer)
The Fixer (Backspacer)
Setting Sun (Dark Matter)
Quick Escape (Gigaton)
Parachutes (Pearl Jam)
Gonna See My Friend (Backspacer)
Sleeping By Myself (Lightning Bolt)
React, Respond (Dark Matter)

I think Wreckage and Upper Hand would definitely make it into a top 10, possibly React/Respond. Off the top of the head, no order (DOTC would be #1, it gets murky afterward)...

Life Wasted
Parachutes
Unemployable
Who Ever Said
Dance of the Clairvoyants
Quick Escape
Seven O’Clock
Upper Hand
Wreckage

and Comes and Goes/React, Respond are neck and neck for the last spot.

Parachutes
Marker in the Sand
Superblood Wolfmoon
Comes Then Goes
Who Ever Said
Scared of Fear
Wreckage
Waiting for Stevie
Got to Give
Setting Sun

Unthought Known
Setting Sun
Upper Hand
Waiting For Stevie
