    I’d recommend this thread in other music for ideas. Not everything in it is for everyone and it’s 26 pages now but the music is usually pretty good regardless https://community.pearljam.com/discussion/174141/ten-albums-presently-floating-your-boat/p1

    Manchester Orchestra has easily become my favorite non-PJ band.
    Probably top 5 for me. Really enjoyed them at Ohana a couple years ago.

    not similar but I've had Queens of the Stone Age catalog on high rotation lately. Saw them twice in last 8 months. They kill it, play a good bit of hits which is fine with me because they are pumping. just wish everyone didn't stand around like stiffs. Also spinning a lot of Maynard's bands, Tool/APC/Puscifer...and back into AIC's catalog. And wish the boys would do a Mad Season cover...

    Not like PJ but some great artists/albums. 

    John butler -live in Paris (great album if you like stories). His last album home was great.

    The glorious sons checkout the live album little prison city. 

    Brian Fallon (from the gaslight anthem) albums pain killers and local honey. 
  • mrezoocmrezooc Posts: 174
    July talk is another great live band (has 2 lead singers. One male and one female). The album touch would be my recommendation

    Sorry to say I can only listen to Pearl Jam non stop for so long before I need something else. Any recommendations on other bands to checkout that have a similar sound?
    They sound nothing like Pearl Jam, but my third favorite band is Wilco. The Beatles rank #2 but you already know their stuff.
    They're my second-favorite. Yep, I put them over the Beatles. (Actually, Radiohead is my No. 3.)

    I've seen Wilco 52 times since 1995, and Pearl Jam 72 times since 1994, but I've seen Jeff Tweedy in one form or another 81 times including the Wilco shows, so he has the edge. By the end of this month, PJ (and Ed) will regain the lead by a hair (80 PJ plus 2 EV and 1 EV/MM).
    We've seen Wilco twice in Vancouver. Awesome shows-they're virtuoso tight that lineup. I believe there's still 2 shows (video)from Oct., 2022 back to back in New Orleans almost no repeats, deep cuts and just great footage on Nugs.
