    Have you not listened to Speed of Sound?

    I love Riot Act. Not my favorite, but far far better than Back Spacer.
    fuck 'em if they can't take a joke

    Apparently all you "Riot Act" lovers/haters missed the point of my post...someone sell me their "Riot Act" vinyl! Anyone with 2 copies??? Anyone REALLY hate it, to the point where you can't even stand to own it??? From one "Riot Act" lover to all the "Riot Act" haters: sell me that shit! Its so hard to find and if I'm going to pay someone, I'd rather they be a PJ Ten Club member...

    Make it happen!

    Its been all downhill since Yield. I know thats gonna piss alot of people off but its my opinion. I still think there a good band live, but there best live years 1990-1998. SORRY

    When Riot Act came out and Can't Keep was on it it was as though Eddie was singing what I had been thinking the couple years up to that.
    I love that album- Arc, I am Mine, Thumbing My Way, All or None, its just awesome.
    And I love the cover art- one of my favorite t-shirts that my husband wears.

    I like Riot Act I know it's not a stand out Pearl Jam album but........

    Highs of Riot act for me

    Save You
    Love Boat Captain
    Cropduster
    I Am Mine
    Thumbing My Way
    You Are
    Get Right

    The low point

    Help Help is the worst song on any Pearl Jam album by far how the heck could that make the final cut! What a waste.

    I love "Can't Keep"
    Something happened with this record.
    I love it now.
