Any initial thoughts or comments?

Quote

Nearly 15 years after Ten, Pearl Jam finally returned to the strengths of their debut with 2006's Pearl Jam, a sharply focused set of impassioned hard rock...Pearl Jam hasn't sounded as alive or engaging as they do here since at least Vitalogy, if not longer.

Here is the full review:

I did get the new Pearl Jam CD. IMO Ten is still the best album they ever made.

Ya, Ten is still their best album but after about the third listen to this
new album to me it's a very good recording, I'm enjoying it

a lot!

It's OK.. kind of simple hard rock, it's less soulful than 10 and kind of reminds me of versus but more generic. Maybe it'll grow on me but I doubt it. Either my tastes have changed or PJ lost something.
