I was wrong about Avocado.

I think it is by far their best album of this century and stands with their best work. Both Binaural and Riot Act have their moments, but this album just plain rocks.
"Gone" is one of my favorite PJ songs. I'm probably in the minority there, but I love it. When the started it in West Palm Beach, the guy behind me, said something like "oh, come on!" and sat down.0 -
I really hit my stride on this album on this tour as well. I liked it from the begining, but got a bit worn out on it on the 06 tour. Now that we only get 4 or 5 tracks a night at most, it sounds great and certain tracks (Severed Hand, Comeback, Army Reserved) have settled nicely into my PJ classics list."Stunned by my own reflection, It's looking back, sees me too clearly and I swore I'd never go there again, Not unlike a friend that politely drags you down,down,down"
When you see me on the street, yell out "FAVO!!!"
I've been to alot of Pearl Jam shows;So fucking what.0 -
Wow!
I think it's really good album, but I had the same... it took a little time until fall in love with Marker in the sand...
Then - Comatose, Big Wave, Come back, Inside job, Gone...
That's all. Maybe Wasted Reprise- that was first song which i wanted to listen...
For all of us the time will come;)Not 10c member? Have sth to say? write to me - I'll put it on the forum

Sorry for bashing it awhile back before this tour. I missed out on the '06 tour...
I completely agree man. I came away from last weekend shaking my head on hearing some of the new stuff I'd dismissed outright on first listen.
I'd welcome a show of nothing but Riot Act and Avocado!0 -
i listen to avocado all the time. i think it's one of their best. definitely one of my favorites. marker in the sand is really cool. it just keeps rockin'. army reserve has some really great lyrics i think. life wasted is a killer opening too!!0

I really enjoy this album and still look forward to hearing them play anything from it in concert (Harford Big Wave got me at least one version of each song). I think this album plays very well and all the songs are good but I dont know if it has a top 5 or even top 10 Pearl Jam song on it. If I were to rank them in order, It would be this....
13. Army Reserve
12. Wasted Reprise
11. Gone
10. Inside Job
9. World Wide Suicide
8. Big Wave
7. Severed Hand
6. Unemployable
5. Comatose
4. Marker in the Sand
3. Parachutes
2. Life Wasted
1. Come Backlet the ocean...0 -
It really is a truly solid rock record. Made me feel a bit like when I bought Yield. Even the songs I didn't care for that much (read Parachutes, Army Reserve) I have grown to really like. I rarely take this cd out of my car. I love it.And I'm not living this life without you, I'm selfish and clear
And you're not leaving here without me, I don't wanna be without
My best... friend. Wake up, to see you could have it all0 -
well at lesat you saw the light ,to me this band has not put out a bad album at all i can listen to any of them and feel great and live is a whole other level ...:Djesus greets me looks just like me ....0

Severed Hand is my favorite song since yield.0

It takes a big man to admit when he's wrong - much respect!"Bring it back, to the clean form. To the pure form"
