    I love it. Might be my personal favorite.. Backspacer does sound promising so far though. It might have some strong competition.

    I love Avocado too (notice the avatar ;) ), but don't we need to at least Hear the whole of Backspacer before we make that determination? Now, kneel before Zod.

    Yeah, I love Avocado too...very much. But, due to the fact that I have not had the privilege of hearing 'Backspacer' quite yet, and that every song I HAVE heard from the album I absolutely love...I'm gonna have to wait to make my own call on this one. Plus, I love No Code, and I know that Mach271 does not...so he and I are likely to disagree on that which makes a PJ album great (at least to some extent) :D

    Severed Hand is the best rock song they've made in a decade.

    I loooooooove the Avocado. Very much. But then I love all their albums!! Just a couple of their songs here and there I don't like but on the whole, every album they've done is to my taste. For me, PJ can do no wrong!!! ;)

    I'm the same way really. I tend to find something to love about each release. I also tend to enjoy the albums that retain some sort of "vibe" that is unique to that album (ie- Binaural, No Code). Does that make sense?

    Also agree with this, Severed Hand is just a great tune.

    Absolutely. A lot, even.

    For the record, I also love Avocado (and, thanks to the OP, am spinning it right now :) ), although it's probably one of theirs that I listen to the least (the most played being Yield and Binaural). I guess what I'm trying to say is: I like even my least favourite PJ stuff better than 90 per cent of all other music. :lol:

    Love Avacado! :D By far in my opinion their best effort since Yield. (I have a feeling I'm a minority on this though!)

    Funny,

    I am wearing the AVACADO t-shirt 2006 touring today.

    (I sell vegetables so sometimes it works... ;) )


    It is a very good album as all of them are... :P

    But they never can make me relive the effect that Ten had on me in 1992... 8-)

    And that's oke... because they seem to getting better and better every album.
    Avacado so far sounds fantastic and the album art is again superb

    You are getting annoying with how much you say + 10. It is also getting annoying that you keep posting about how much you hate Backspacer. Its like you think you are so cool that you heard it and want everyone to know how cool you are. Well you arent, especially if you think Self Titled is a better album than No Code. You pretty much lose all credibility as far as musical tastes goes. I hope Im not at any shows with you, youre prob one of those guys that scream "Dirty Frank!!!" between every song.

    It is a Classic Pearl Jam song, the best off the CD...it is what Porch meant to Ten
