Yeah, I love Ten and to a lesser extent, Vs.

I like the occasional song off the newer albums.

Ten is brilliant, though.

Yellow Ledbetter is amazing, probably my favorite song by them, followed closely behind by Alive and then.. hmmm, Jeremy I guess..

They rock.

I love the Live on Two Legs Album, great version of Better Man and of course Ten is just that good. I like most of their new stuff too.

Yield is my favorite of their Albums, I love them all though. Nocode is a great album also, it has a different sound a lot softer but it comes out great. I personally both of those cds are better albums than ten...a lot more depth. Heh, I'm probably biased though since my Name is a Pearl Jam song :D

I don't know, Ten has a lot of depth to it. I personally like Vitalogy the best. I prefer the darker side of Pearl Jam.

Vitalogy has a lot of my favorite songs on it; "Nothingman", "Not For You", "Better Man", "Corduroy" and "Immortality". But I also like Vs. and Yield a lot. Ten and No Code aren't too bad, I enjoy them more and more every time I listen to them. Pearl Jam are the best band to come out of the 90's grunge scene.

I think Our Lady Peace pretty clearly came out of the 90's grunge scene. Naveed is very post-grunge. So I'd have to go with OLP, then Pearl Jam. I can't really say Nirvana because they never "came out" of it. :( Which is kind of ironic considering how much Kurt allegedly hated it. I dunno, something's up there, it seems to me.. with all his supposed hatred of fame.

You just discounted your own opinion. To come out of the grunge movement, you would have had to have been apart of it. Our Lady Peace came out after the grunge scene died, so they're a post-grunge band if you're going to label them with something. Pearl Jam came out of the scene, they were apart of the movement and they are here now. Therefore they came out of it, right?

Back to their music, I love Pearl Jam...I must say my favorite song is Better Man though. Their stuff is brilliant, but I just love Better Man.
I faced death. I went in with my arms swinging. But I heard my own breath and had to face that I'm still living. I'm still flesh. I hold on to awful feelings. I'm not dead... My chest still draws breath. I hold it. I'm buoyant. There's no end.

I know I should probably introduce myself in some way, but fuck it, I'm just going to start posting.
And here we go...

Pearl Jam is amazing, incredible. I was just 13 when my brother decided I needed to experience better music than I was being exposed to at that point and forced me to go to a concert with him. I am forever indebted to him for it. My favorite album is Vitalogy, but that's most likely because that's the first album I really listened to. Also, the Mamasan Trilogy is a masterpiece, writing at it's finest.
And though the static walls surround me
You were out there and you found me
I was out here listening all the time

Alright, yeah. I agree. OLP aren't grunge.

:nod:

I did a research paper in ENGL 1101 about the Grunge movement and how it led to Alternative music of today...OLP is clearly a product of the grunge movement...definately "post-grunge"


And just so my post isn't completely off topic...
Pearl Jam does rock...I love Better Man and Even Flow...there's just something about Even Flow that gets me going.
