    The music is really, really good.I think its spot on. Unfortunately, the vocals really let the overall sound down.

    You may completely disagree and i would understand why, but even though the singer is singing EV songs he should not try to sound like Eddie (does that make sense).He can obviously stay in key which is a good thing, but anyone that fakes a baritone sounds really taccy (Only my opinion, see Scott Stapp). So my constructive critcism would be to remain in key but sing with your own voice. Really relax your voice. If you feel like you need to sound more vedderish try and sound more like he does this current tour. He himself has toned down the baritone for a more natural sound.

    Again the music is fantastic; and im trying to be constructive. The singer has talent but he would soon so much better if he sounded more natural.

    Sounds great! I sort of agree with the vocals point made by prev poster, but since you are a PJ tribute band, then I guess the point is to try and sound like Eddie, and that ain't easy. Really good job!

    I'm sure you've posted here before and I'm sure I said much the same thing then, but you've gotta lose that singer. None of us are Eddie Vedder, many of us try, usually by inserting "r"s into words that don't otherwise have them, eg. "I terk a drairve todayr, tihrme to ehrmancipayrt". Doesn't work. Chances are, he'll sound more like Ed if he stops trying to sound like Ed.

    sound: 9/10
    voice: 7/10

    Just quit slurring the words with r's, he will sound badass if he quits that. All in all, it's a good tribute band.

    He sounds like David Bowie trying to sound like Eddie Vedder.
    ...and if you don't like it, you can suck on an egg.

    just so no one gets frustrated, we changed the site, so the music plays in the background on all pages, but that dumped the link above.

    so if you want to listen go here http://www.pjtribute.com

    thanks.

    Sounds like the Crashtest dummies covering PJ.


    Music is very good and the singer sounds great....at times. When he tries too hard is when I wait for the mmmm mmmm mmmm mmmm to kick in.
    If a man speaks in a forest and there is no woman around to hear him, is he still wrong?
