you've missed nothing besides drummer debates and bad jokes.

Yeah, but he also was pretty proud of Inside Job.

And Turning Mist.

Who the fuck replies to a post made 30 pages ago?

This guy. And Joey.

- Europeans aren't excited about the album
- IlluminEddie is the densest poster in RM
- Stip and Harmless make a lot of excuses
- Pot is legal in the Netherlands

Basically...

If you're not a Matt Cameron fanboi, get out. Because he's the best songwriter in the band.

If it sounded anything like that I would love it.

It is true that this doesn't sound like LB, FD, or MYM, but I've gotten the sense from the reviews that these are, if not outliers, not indicative of the album as a whole.

I'd prefer to hear someone come out and say that this was amazing, but I've never had that reaction to a single pearl jam album on first listen, and I wouldn't expect to find that here, especially under these circumstances.

I am continuing to maintain, as I've basically done throughout, that these reviews are useful for giving us a sense of what types of songs these are, and that's it. I said that before we heard anything.

Mike, can you make an 8-bit version with a normal voice over?

Maybe they just don't show their excitement because Germans are like that.
