    cant keep lbc do have some ten in it

    i think yield reminds me of classic pj
    but its opinion

    Yup, and I think that is what I have been trying to say all along, is that its very subjective.

    See, the only problem I have with this post is the use of the word creativity. I think that that is too subjectvie. Otherwise I totally agree, but who's to say what is more creative, its a matter of taste.

    those songs i mentioed you have to admit are on their more creative side vers just rocking out

    It's a rare thing when people can actually come to terms and agree on this board, but I think we actually accomplished that this morning. Amazing. :)

    Now, its time for me to go watch some college football. Have a good one fellas.

    I agree that Riot Act sounds more like Ten than YIELD does. But then again, I think Ten was not exactly a creative peak for the band, either. I think Ten and Riot Act are both pretty straight forward rock albums. No Code and YIELD are the band's 2 most experimental albums, in my opinion.


    yes but he emotion on ten is at a very high level

    that is where i am coming from with dark
    and production

    so i guess its all subjective

    ten is straight foward rock

    lyrically is almost a rock opera
    riot act is not that

    Maybe, I think all of their stuff is pretty creative, but when I think of creative, or maybe experimental, I think of Who You Are, In My Tree, All Night, You Are, W.M.A, songs like that. Again, totally subjective.

    True. Riot Act is far from a rock opera.

    I hear that. I made that comment in reference to saying that I thought that Riot Act was darker than Yield. It was part of a long conversation.

    I would definitely agree with you that I think No Code is the band's experimental album. I kind of feel like Riot Act was their mature, we're classic rock now, album.


    yes i got that feel somewhat

    and alot of fans do not want that

    especially when ed is telling people on live interviews that it will be their back to roots album, plays save you before the album comes out which is deiferant than anything on the record and it misled a lot of people

    Yea, that could be a problem, describing things like it ain't.

    Awesome talking with you too. And Rockking certainly was able to help me (and I think both of us) clarify what we were both trying to say.

    I'm 21 (in two weeks) and at the point where I also love everything about Pearl Jam.

    I guess we're both brainwashed. ;)

    Sorry to come into this so late... but as a fellow classic rock fan, I have to say I have a completely different opinion. I hear the classic rock dripping off of YIELD, but to me Riot Act has none of the qualities I would associate with classic rock - ie, guitar solos, riffs, anthems, etc.

    RA seems much more introspective to me. There's nothing that makes me want to crank up the car stereo, roll down the windows, and drive fast. IMO, If you can't play air guitar to it, it's not classic rock! :)

    Even songs like 1/2 Full, I Am Mine, Thumbing My Way, All or None? I'm not talking like 80's anthem rock, I'm talking real classic rock.

    I don't exactly hear Yield at all as a classic rock, or even anthem rock. Totally wierd how two people listening to the same music can hear such different things about it. Still cool though.

    I really love these 3 songs:

    - Love Boat Captain
    - I Am Mine
    - Thumbing My Way

    I think it's an excellent album.

    Yosi, look at the YIELD thread. You might be happy with what I discovered last night. :)
