If I'm not in the right zone to listen to it, the solos, the keys and even the first verse make me in a 'why pearl jam why?' Kinda way.

I still mostly like it though. I'm enjoying watching the live versions from the tour.

Songs 5-8 are really good for me, playing them the most, although I don't mind the first 3 as well.

No Sirens then Clint!

I had the same idea and did something similar...love it.

1. Pendulum
2. Sometimes
3. Immortality
4. Cold Confessions
5. Speed of Sound (demo)
6. Of The Girl
7. Thunderclap
8. Sleight of Hand
9. Nothingman (demo)
10. Fatal
11. Wasted Reprise
12. Nothing As It Seems
13. Indifference

At this point I score this record 3.5 lightning bolts out of 5.

Hear the silence

it's a 4 for me (internal to the catalog).

Ten/Vitalogy: 5
Vs: 4.5
Lightning Bolt/Backspacer: 4
Yield/S/t: 3.5
Bianural, No code, Riot Act: 3

that star rating was dedicated to McParadigm. The sequential ranking was dedicated to ruddo

stip has made it painfully clear to me that the internet has an unexpectedly low cache of original rage face images.

I feel your pain. But I'll try anyway.

Spoiler: show

rally 'round the jam'ly
with a pocket full of....regret, I guess? I don't even know.

If anyone is interested in the specifics:

Aiming for their first ever UK number one album, Pearl Jam fail valiantly but secure their eighth Top 10 album from 10 studio releases, debuting at number two with Lightning Bolt on sales of 17,559 copies. It is a little over four years since their last studio album, Backspacer, debuted and peaked at number nine on first week sales of 25,804 copies.

17,000 makes into the top 10?

How come they'd be higher up the chart with fewer sales?

Sales in general have dropped I assume. And maybe its a slow week.

OK, yeah so it's relative. Makes sense.
