I'm pretty sure at the moment it's my favorite Pearl Jam tune since Undone.

i wont go that far since Undone is in my top 10, and nothing from LB is close to that, but i love Swallowed Whole right now, and hearing it live only made me love it more

I haven't been here in a while. Nice to see the love for Swallowed Whole though! I think it might be the Lightning Bolt tune that gets closest to the heart of what Pearl Jam is all about (IMO).

Oh, don't get me wrong, it's not close to Undone (which is in my top ten too, and the most recent top tier/elite Pearl Jam song for me). But I do think it's my favorite post Riot Act-era song right now. I can't say there's anything on S/T or Backspacer that hits the spot for me the way Swallowed Whole does.

Undone is really great. It might crack my top 10 Riot Act +

Wait, I can check that song ranking thing to find out for sure!

36. Comatose (Pearl Jam, 2006)


Yup, number 7.

This list is a bit off though. Comatose should be higher. Somewhere in the top 20, most likely. I must have misclicked somewhere

I had no idea people liked "Undone" so much.

do you like it much? its been a favorite of mine since i found a single for I Am Mine that had both Down and Undone on it not long after Riot Act came out

I think I like "Undone" but I can never remember what it sounds like.

Undone is fantastic.

Oh yeah, that one. Yeah I really like it too. I get a big rainy-day Seattle vibe from it, and I've never been to Seattle.

But you're from England so you should know what those days are like.

Yeah that's true. I also live by a beach. We don't have the sand dunes or the mirram grass but it might be pretty close.

My post-Riot Act rankings, but Undone still feels too low on this list at 10. Great great song.

Hard To Imagine should not count as a post-Riot Act song.

Yea true but neither should Undone since it's a Riot Act b-side
