August 27th of this year, Beyoncé style with zero press, immediate downloads and a true return to circa '91 form.
I also look forward to Dave K.'s triumphant return.

can we all agree that Pearl Jam never really had a form that they can return to?

So there you have it, this is as close to the explicit mission statement that I've always wondered aloud about (and have been roundly bashed for) that is widely accepted by consensus of this board: That RM is simply a place for people who's fandom of the band has run it's course, and not a whole lot else.
Basically, it's a board for former fans. All of the debate that there is something subjective and that current fans are part of this fabric and that the commenters here can't be pidgeonholed and that there are a multitude of viewpoints and that this place is not homogenous, etc, etc has borne itself out. It is the bubble that I have contended it to be.
I appreciate the honesty. We are under no illusions, so thank you for that. Sincerely.
Is it normal for fans of any other band to love every single album? Also, most of the people here still talk fondly about the albums they like, just not the ones they don't, which happens to be the last two. I'll take criticism and hope for another good album over the fawning at the Pit about every word that the band utters.

100% agreed. i have a huge level of hope and desire that the next album will be good. doesn't need to be great. but it's healthy to have a level of skepticism, no matter what you're doing or talking about. to love something blindly is dangerous. that's how Hitler started.

You all realize that the band has broken up right? Like...you literally think there's going to be an 11th album? That is the funniest shit I've heard all day . Like...you honestly think that they're going to do another album? I just...can't...stop...laughing You ARE aware that the band basically broke up in 2007 and has been a husk since, motivated purely by money? Like...you people ARE aware of that, right? Because it's the most obvious thing ever Unless you think dreck like Just Breathe and Let The Records Play are worthy editions to the canon

Because I literally can't believe what I just read
You're telling me that you think Let The Records Play is a good song?
Just let that sink in a minute...you literally think Let The Records Play is a good song
I honestly can't believe what I just read like...are you serious? Are you actually serious right now? Smh

Just Breathe and LtRP are both great. I'm happy to have them and I listen to them frequently.
