    another reason to feel old! I remember not being to make it to the mall that day so my brother picked it up for me. A few days earlier my friend had brought over an illegal copy and I only listened to Breakerfall. Didn't want to ruin the rest of the surprise.

    This is the last part of their peak for me. No Code, Yield, and Binaural are PJ at their best/weirdest/coolest.

    This was the album that turned me OFF to Pearl Jam. Up until this point I was obsessed with the band and listened to nothing but PJ since the day I heard Ten. I was fresh out of college and was not ready for the direction the band went with this album. I stopped listening to PJ from this point on until S/T was released. Only after I grew up and matured into an adult was I ready for this album. Its now one of my favorites and can appreciate it, but at the time I couldn't stand it......

    Had been listening to the band for a few years prior to this album, but this was the first album I made the effort to purchase on release day.  Then saw them live for the first time 2 weeks later.  The rest is history - Was literally life changing.

    Right?! I'll always have a special place for Binaural in my heart. Came out when my wife and I started dating.

    I was a late bloomer...I remember getting Binaural and RA and zipping through them both real quick (probably just listening to the first 15 seconds of each song) on the CD player to get a feel for each song and not being real impressed. That, of course, is an idiotic way to listen to a PJ album. Took me a few years but I finally figured it out.

    I was still heavily into Soundgarden/STP and RATM then
