Maybe it’s just me, but I don’t think that sounds very “90s grunge”.

@stbc thank you for saying that!

I’ve avoided PJ fans online for years because of all the insistence on everything equating to Ten, or nothing measuring up. I don’t fit the factions.

Ten was awesome and I still love it. Also love how evolved and relevant Gigaton was. Everything in between - They’ve never put out a record I didn’t like as a whole record, though I might find one track or another reaches me a bit more (and which tracks can be a mood thing). Very few artists like that, for me.

@Johannab True.

They have not only transformed themselves from a role model for the misunderstood youth of the 90s, but have also created their own hype and survived it as individuals and as a band. I don't even want to talk about tragic events like the one in Roskilde.

@stbc Wonder how much the facebook groups are grousing about Ed’s hat in that video clip.

@Johannab Never read in those...

I prefer message boards... :) much less toxic there. I must know, I am running one regarding Pearl Jam - only german speaking though

@atzanteol Oh, sorry - I DID understand that! Was just continuing the dialogue.

I’m an “invisible” fan who’s been nuts for the music since … uh, well, since Temple of the Dog? Which would have been when when (most of) PJ was first heard on alt-rock radio in my University town. Ten was the soundtrack to my 2nd year.

I’ve only paid attention to “fan” stuff since the pandemic, though and find it kinda funny to read a 30 year old “music journalist” either crowing or complaining about “grunge”.
