    If they're doing what I've wished for it would be making a great late career album.  But then for me the thread title would have to be be "Dinosaur Jr [or The Who or Nick Cave or Juliana Hatfield or David Bowie did]  is doing what we all wished for".  I have not given up hope on that happening.
    The last 3 Dinosaur Jr albums are as good as anything they've done and that is amazing.

    That's because J Mascis is God. The real one, not that fake one everyone talks about (you know, that one in the bible).

    Saw him here in Italy last month at the Prato show (about one hour drive from where I live). I love the man. No bullshit, just straight-up good music. We need that like water now, around here.

    And PJ is still like 10-15 years younger than those guys.  Metallica was already big in 91 and 92 and PJ just got started.  It took them 8 years to go from Death Magnetic to Hardwired.  If we want a good album we have to keep waiting just like Tool and Metallica fans. I would rather have them go huge in another year or 2 with an awesome album than a mediocre album.

    If it takes another six years for them to do a great album, so be it. But no cantdenyme's and sirens's stuff, please.

    That's not entirely accurate.  PJ started their career a little older than many other bands.   Hetfield is only 1 year older than Vedder.   It's one of the reasons PJ was amazing out of the gate.  Most of them had experience playing/recording/touring in other bands prior to starting PJ.  

    Metallica formed in '81, but that means most of the band was still in their late teens when they did that.   So technically Metallica the band is 9 years older than PJ the band, but their actual ages are pretty close together.

    J Mascis is killing it these days.

    When I read the title I was hoping they were giving out free money or something. 
    Peace,Love and Pearl Jam.
