    Riot Act is one of PJ's top three albums. It's definitely underrated. Green Disease, Cropduster, Save You, 1/2 Full . . . these are all great songs.

    I'm getting tired of people pissin on Riot Act.

    It's a good album. It took a little longer than some of their other albums to grow on me, but it's still a good album.

    Better than the recycled garbage that a lot of bands are putting out these days.

    So, I've been listening to only the new album for the last couple of days, and just felt like I needed a little break. Don't get me wrong, I love it, but just needed a little break.

    Anyway, I decided to put in Riot Act, and you know what, this album fucking kicks ass. Riot Act is so good. I can't believe that so many people don't like it. The whole album practically is amazing. Anyway, don't forget about this one. Its awesome!!!!

    Yeah, I did the same thing.
    I still can't understand how so many don't like Ghost, Cropduster, Help Help and Get Right. Save you, Half Full and all or None are Classics. That album is one of their best.

    Its funny you say that cause Help Help is the only song on the album I don't really like. However, you also forgot You Are which is effing brilliant. I also love LBC and I Am Mine.

    Now that Riot Act is no longer their "latest" album it will become even more legendary.

    Amazing record.

    I agree! I'm currently in new album mode but I will be excited to hear any Riot Act songs they offer live, especially Cropduster, Ghost, All or None, LBC, Green Disease, and Half Full

    This album is brilliant.....


    i fine odd people hating this album......iwonder why..........i mean


    Most of their songs when played live sound amazing.......with the exception perhaps of cropduster or ghost.........only because the album really captured the live vibe of those 2 songs.....and when played live there was no space to try something different......

    and this was the album that really marked the moment when pearl jam started experimenting different thing........like Arc, Youare, bushleaguer

    Personally i think is the album that has best captured the live vibe that pj bring to concerts.......the rest of their albums sounds a bit too polished.......

    i think in the end it might be an acquired taste thing...............then lucky us who get this one right!


    P.s how can u hate songs like ghost and get right,,,,and then love songs like Big wave??

    Riot Act is a good album....YIELD, however, is a way of life. :)
    No longer overwhelmed it seems so simple now.

    Fanch would say listening to Riot Act is a way of ending one's life. ;)

    I really hope that they bust out a bunch of RA songs on the next tour. It would be a little dissapointing if they didn't play a lot of songs. I really would love to hear You Are (again), Green Disease, 1/2 Full, Cropduster, Ghost, Get Right (again), Bushleaguer (again), and I Am Mine (again). I'm going to four shows, so hopefully I'll be able to hear a few of these. Damn, this is one fucking good album.


    i hope they do this too............this album rocks awesome on the boots.......


    me?? well i wont attend that many shows :(........thanks God for them delicious boots!


    Edit.......yet another top of the page for me....man, im getting good at this!
