I absolutely love Ten and while I was a bit disappointed when Vs came out (Daughter and Glorified G are terrible, terrible songs) there were still some great tunes on there. When Vitalogy came out I gave up on the band. That whole punk thing they got going, plus the hair cuts and loosing Abruzzeeze was the worst thing that happened to the band. I still listen to Ten, 17 years later, and to Temple of the Dog and Mother Love Bone and Alice in Chains and Soundgarden and Brad and Mad Season... But I haven't touched Vitalogy pretty much since I bought it and I have never bought another PJ album. To me, they lost the plot completely. And Matt Cameron, an awesome drummer with Soundgarden, sounds like he's been playing the drums for six months with PJ. They should have dropped it a long time ago... Man, I miss rock music...

For my money, Vs. (or Five Against One, if you want to get picky) was a far superior album and remains the only unflawed album in the band's pantheon. i’m going to have to agree that this was the best dukes yet.

Thanks. I have to wonder though if Pearl Jam had no say in the Cold Case soundtracking-- and that the results are part of a bad licensing deal with SONY. Occasionally I hear their (ten-era) songs as vamp music on football games or morning talk shows.. Both those and the Cold Case thing seem out of character for a band that has only soundtracked films made by their friends (Singles, Chicago Cab, Into The Wild) or documentaries about their own personal politics (Body of War, You Can't Be Neutral On A Moving Train)... Then again Vedder has been quoted as saying Pete Townshend was more of a father to him than anyone else-- maybe The Who on CSI and that Hummer commercial convinced him to be a bit more lax on their licensing deals. Doubt it though. Yeah, this was pretty great. Thanks.
