    Unfortunately my husband couldn’t stand Ed’s voice, which has been a problem over the years… Since I’ve exposed him a lot to Pearl Jam, he has sort of become used to Vedder’s voice (but still isn't too fond of it).

    This summer we went to see them in Copenhagen (fantastic show). He thought that the band was great and about Vedder he said: “He is very, very skilled”.

    I recently found my husband watching IIC all by himself, so I guess there is some sort of hope...

    Ed's voice to me is quite amazing, it holds so many tracks together as does the tightness of the band overall. That I guess is what makes them so good, take any of them away and it just wouldn't be the same.

    Btw, great debate on this thread. Pleased its had some good attention and interesting comments.

    I know people who don't like PJ because of EV voice. In their opinion ED sings like he has stomach ache or like old woman in a church. Sometimes (sorry, Ed) evev for me he sounds like that. But anyway - i love this unique voice. Other people just can't stand the music - it's a chaotic rasp! They just don't understand it
    Not 10c member? Have sth to say? write to me - I'll put it on the forum

    ed's vocals are amazing but i know some people have gotten sick of his style due to all the imitators, maybe thats why some people who are new to the band may dislike his voice. many people who ive introduced then band to tell me they sound like creed.. and im not joking

    Thats a very good point but never considered it myself, it could be very true.
