Pearl Jam

Sometimes you make something so unexpectedly good and spend the rest of your life trying to recreate it or top it off while your fans demand more of the same stuff.

They did. That's a Pearl Jam album, anon.

Ten was very grandiose album. The band does not want to return to that. Vs. is a good example of this.

Nirvana did the same with In Utero.

They didn't want to redo the albums/songs that made them popular.

>Why did Pearl Jam never make an album as good as this?
They had like three.

They let Eddie Vedder start writing songs instead of Stone Gossard. And they were never the same band after that.

Apparently they didn't expect Ten to get as big as it did so they made it a very personal album. After they achieved fame they kind of shied away from that.

They might not be the same style as Ten but they're really great albums in their own right.

They didn't like the stadium rock production and solos. Not that it was their fault; just like with Nevermind, they didn't have the money or creative control to have the thing sound like they wanted.

And frankly, Cobain was an idiot for saying PJ were fakers because they had too many solos in Ten when it wasn't really their fault. All subsequent albums sound a lot different.

He didn't like them because a bunch of Pearl Jam's members used to be in hair metal groups. Kurt thought that if you didn't start out playing indie noise rock or whatever in your local scene, you weren't really "alternative".

"We turned down Guns'N'Roses. That would have been a big waste of time. I dunno about Soundgarden. We hung out with them and they seem like good guys. But then there's groups like Alice In Chains and Pearl Jam that are obvious corporate puppets. Many of these guys were involved in the hairspray/cockrock scene for years and now suddenly they all stop washing their hair, put on flannel, move up to Seattle from LA to get a record deal, and act as if they've lived here all their life. It's extremely offensive to me."

Well, he got that right
but Vedder is so far ahead of his time, kurt rip in pepperoni

I was an angsty teen back then and I never liked PJ anyway. I found them boring. I had their albums, but then everyone did.

members of Pearl Jam where a part of the seattle music scene years before kurt

Is Eddie Vedder the most annoying iconic rock vocalist ever? He sounds like the magnification of all of the faults in Jim Morrison's style.
