and we all know how good that album was (not saying BS should be compared to Ten, as it shouldn't). But if you take all the filler tracks (non singing tracks off the other albums), you would have about 11 full fledged songs. I'm just so used to the 13 song format for most of their albums.
11/6/95, 11/18/97, 7/13/98, 7/14/98, 10/24/00, 10/25/00, 10/28/00, 6/2/03, 6/3/03, 6/5/03, 7/6/06, 7/7/06, 7/9/06, 7/10/06, 7/13/06, 7/15/06, 7/16/06, 7/18/06, 10/21/06, 4/10/08, 4/13/08, 9/30/09, 10/1/09, 10/6/09, 10/7/09, 10/9/09

    I'm not sure exactly what your point is, but if it's in response to all the silly threads about the length of the new album I agree. I don't get it. For me it's quality vs quantity and from what I've heard so far it's great! I am really excited about the new album and don't really understand all the negativity about the length. :)

    I have never had lower expectations for a Pearl Jam record before. Hopefully this will cause me to be delightfully delighted, in a delighted sort of way. But there's just too much weirdness surrounding it: Target, 36 minutes in length, Mike saying it has pop elements... Ugh. I'm sure I'll love it, irregardless.

    Maybe because we so used to Pearl Jam albums (not including Lost Dogs) with an average of 13 songs (104/8=13). And the length of each album is at least 45-55 minutes. Going back to an 11 song album, totaling 36 minutes is a shock at first, but should be easy to adapt to.
