Please Give Us An Experimental Album
Like the title says. An album with a 30 minute rendition of “Alive” or a mashup of “Evenflow” and “Daughter” lasting 45 minutes. Maybe throw in some new instruments to our favourite songs. For example play some sitar on “Inside Job”.
Lets think outside the box to avoid another typical studio album.

-my dad after hearing Not for You for the first time on SNL .
Anyway, think about their most "experimental" tracks: You Are, Sleight of Hand, Can't Keep (Riot Act version), Help, Help... Probably most of them come from Binaural and Riot Act. And guess what two albums are often at the bottom of people's list of favorite albums? Yes, these two.
Usually, when Matt Cameron writes a song (and when this happens, you're almost guaranteed to get an experimental song, I mean experimental for PJ standards at least, like using different time signatures or different sounds/mood than what PJ used us to hear - You Are, Evacuation, Cropduster, In the Moonlight..) most people's reaction is not good.
I think, unfortunately, PJ knows this, and that is one of the reasons of the descending quality of the last couple albums.

ps: Evacuation may not be for everyone, but... shit and farting?
I like it overall, but just like any PJ album there's 3-4 songs I skip. The difference is there aren't 3-4 songs that blow me away, the rest are just good, not mind-blowing good.
For me there's pre-Yield and post-Yield. Nother after yield (starting with Binaural) matched the quality of Yield or anything before it.
understand why.
