edited August 2016 in The Porch
With "Merch Madness" behind us for the time being, lets focus some now on the music that got us all here in the first place.
What this thread is about, is the perfect 10 song album with one song from each of their studio albums. Place them in the order you want, and lets discuss some great music. I will start off:

Track 1 - Corduroy (Vitalogy)
Track 2 - Animal (Vs)
Track 3 - Given To Fly (Yield)
Track 4 - Nothing As It Seems (Binaural)
Track 5 - Present Tense (No Code)
Track 6 - Black (Ten)
Track 7 - Life Wasted (Pearl Jam)
Track 8 - Amongst The Waves (Backspacer)
Track 9 - I Am Mine (Riot Act)
Track 10 - Pendulum (Lightning Bolt)

Who is next? Give us your "Ultimate Album"

    Track 1 - Last Exit (Vitalogy)
    Track 2 - RVM (Vs)
    Track 3 - In Hiding (Yield)
    Track 4 - Lightning Bolt (Lightning Bolt)
    Track 5 - Green Disease (Riot Act)
    Track 6 - Insignificance (Binaural)
    Track 7 - In My Tree (No Code)
    Track 8 - Unthought Known (Backspacer)
    Track 9 - Come Back (Pearl Jam)
    Track 10 - Release (Ten)

    Man... that was tough! But fun finding an order where they'd fit together. Also interesting we have Green Disease twice already... I used to skip that song for whatever reason, and one day the melody of the chorus really hit me and it's been one of my all time favorites ever since.

    Like the 'Alive' opening.

    I also see 'Release' is a common opener for some. Why do you think they chose to end with 'Release' on Ten?

    I think they just wanted to end with something slower. Could be as simple as that, or maybe not.

    Where else would they have put it, you think?

    Release has turned in to the ultimate opener since then.
