    Vintage Pearl Jam, first five.

    :)

    I'm sure they will put out something good.

    I want to hear an album that just plain sounds like Pearl Jam again, with songs that have meaning lyrically and musically.

    Yes! That would be wonderful! Throw us a curveball, Pearl Jam!

    ...just for me, because no one else will vote for punk.

    I’m good with however it sounds but some old school Pearl Jam would be awesome.

    Vintage, minus the Riot Act.  More powerful vocals with a little less cheese on the lyrics.

    That’s what I hope for.  What I think we’re going to get is more of the sound they’ve kind of settled into over the past few albums.  No change at drummer in 20 years combined with Eddie’s warbling, much less powerful voice, I think we’ll get a CD most of us will be happy with but not up to the standard we hold PJ at.  We’ll get a couple very good songs and then stuff we won’t want to hear in 5 years.

    I don't mind that tune but, if it were up to me (and it's not), I too think I'd like them to stay away from the "punk" tunes, as well as the "sappy" or "corny" ones. Even if I stay away from the (awesome) nineties tunes as a comparison, the band created a lot of interesting songs since then like...

    Of the Girl
    Rival
    Parting Ways
    Insignificance
    Can't Keep
    Save You
    I Am Mine
    Ghost
    Severed Hand
    Inside Job
    Force of Nature
    Unthought Known (maybe a bit sappy/corny)
    Pendulum
    Getaway

    In my mind, that's 14 really solid tunes that could act as a template for any new record.

    I should’ve said “other” because I agree with “all of the above”. I just hope they push a little with some experimental stuff like Of The Earth. Show off all the musical talents of these fantastic musicians. And let mike loose!!

    Experimental. To me the dream Pearl Jam record would be them collaborating with Jack White.

    They had their fun with him at Third Man. I hope they avoid collabs forever

    I can only speak for myself, but... yes, provided that I can smell it.
