    I love Pearl Jam but after 30 years I don’t think they can release anything that I will be listening to for more than a couple weeks before putting away.

    I listen to a song or two from it here and there
    After the first few listens I started cutting it to the first four songs.  I did mix in the full album probably 10-15 more times.  Now I am down to once in a while playing songs from the first three, maybe four cuts.
    Hoping that seeing it live will bring some of the other songs around for me....

    I’ve listened to it more, front to back, than any other PJ album of this century. Not because I like it so much more (although I do really like it), but because it hasn’t been replaced by any shows. In a non-COVID universe i shelved it some time last summer in favor of boots from MSG and Baltimore.

    Like an erection, it started out with a good hard listen quite a lot, but as time goes on the sensation of new tunes fades and becomes a more flacid once a week or two listen.  But like any album I love it when it comes on unexpectedly, but usually it is over too quick to appreciate and I am left sad and depressed it didn't last longer

    Quit being so hard on yourself.

    Weekly. But with two little ones, weekly is considered top rotation. More often I’ll throw on a song or two. Lately it’s been Whoever Said, DOTC, Comes and Goes, and Seven o Clock.

    It's been a while for me & not that I don't like it, I love it but with Covid ruining my European tour that coincided with my 50th It's on the back burner as I play more guitar than listen to music these days

    I played it so much on release, I maybe over did it a bit, taken a few months off from the cycle, but will defo return to it in time. Still like a lot of the record

    Probably been the summer time since I listened to it in full. Since then, probably just the same few songs and that's been months ago.

    Comes then goes is the only song that doesn’t get skipped on artist shuffle 
    Yeh I've seen Pearl Jam, too. But I can't remember the dates.

    I bought it on CD when it came out, but only got the vinyl a little while ago. The vinyl came with a digital download, so I find that listen to it more on my phone when I am out running. When listening to the CD at work, I skip around a little, depending on the mood.

    A ton more than i did for Lightning Bolt or Avocado 9 months after their release. 

    Ill play at least one song weekly.   Good album.  For them to make my 5th or 6th fav PJ album 30 yrs in is very surprising.

    So much amazing new music out there, PJ isn’t even in my weekly rotation. They are my favorite band though, haha!

    First four songs occasionally. The rest are pretty much throw away. I am treating this album just as I did Lightning Bolt. I can't remember the last time I actually listened to LB in full.

    Same here. Working from home I've had to put more albums into rotation so every day wasn't the same, but it still holds up well. Also occasionally listen to it from start to finish as a running soundtrack, which is nice in itself to enjoy PJ while exercising.

    A few times during the initial release, then it's been shelved since. I have to many other records that I like better.

    I would listen to the full album once or twice a week for the first 3 or 4 months. Now I put it on about once or twice a month and listen to about 4 or 5 tracks. I can't expect another VS or Yield from them at this point. Still much better than LB, so this was about as good as I could have hoped or expected.
