Pearl Jam Lost Dogs

[galactica]

I use to be a HUGE pearl jam fan
i fogave the release of riot act - there was at least one or two good songs.

now Lost Dogs comes out, i buy it of coase

HOW HORRIBLE!!!!!

do you agree??

jeeze!!

what the hell happened to the day when you could understand pearl jam songs, and why throw classic songs in there - its almost like they knew it sucked!

your thoughts!

I've never been much of a Pearl Jam fan. They're not really my style.

[galactica]

DANG! 11 votes for pearl jam who!

you all are missing out (on the earlier stuff that is)

yellow ledbetter
alive
daughter
even flow
jeremy


wow! im shocked

[Duchess]

Sounds as though they are about as well known as Hank Marvin of The Shadows. Known in the UK but probably not outside the country, although I'll no doubt get a surprise or two having said that.

[Balaclava]

I love their older stuff but I never heard Lost Dogs.

[Metaluna]

Pearl Jam is very well known in the US, it's just that everyone is sick of Eddie Vedder's too-cool-for-the-room angry artist schtick, so now they are pretty much irrelevant.

[tgpo]

The problem is that all their songs sound exactly the same. Their is no variations

[Bota2112]

Pearl Jam???

RUSH!!!!!

What the hell? Pearl Jam is not from Canada you half wits!!! They are from Seattle... Hello? Seattle sound... grunge rock?

Also, lost dogs is not a new album with new material. The songs on this album are B-sides... Just like Yellowledbetter was the B-side to Jeremy. Does anyone in this forum even know anything about Pearl Jam? Also, don't rate them based on their popular tunes: Alive, Jeremy, Daughter... Check out the entire "Ten" album. Then, check out "VS"... not bad either... started to slip with "Vitalogy", but came back a little with "No Code". Check out tunes like: Given To Fly, Dissadent, Release, Once, Nothingman, Hail Hail, Yellowledbetter.... the list goes on.

AND PEARL JAM IS NOT FROM CANADA!!!!

THE ONLY MUSIC TO EVER COME FROM THERE HAS BEEN CELINE DION AND BRYAN ADAMS... Awful...

[galactica]

I know enough to not say they are from canada! hahahahaha
as per this being B side songs - i knew most of them were but assumed some were just new songs - ie like a new album

thus i guess "lost dogs" fits the cd's well.

Overall after listening to this set of cd's over and over they sort of grow on you. the 2nd disk more so now than before.

i still love the band, and hope they put out an origional new cd that hearlds them all!!!

[galactica]

I am still totally fathomed that 500+ of you dont know who pearl jam is

can anyone dig up a locality poll, are the majority of us not in the US or something?!

The majority belongs to Europe

[racer-x]

For the record, Pearl Jam is on my all time top ten bands. I put them right behind Led Zep, Pink Floyd, Jimi Hendrix, Deep Purple and AC-DC.

I haven't heard lost dogs yet, but their older stuff was excellent!

a few others are from there too -

Neil Young
Rush
Triumph
Joni Mitchell
Cowboy Junkies
Anne Murray
Alanis Morissette
k.d. lang
Avril Lavigne
Loverboy
Corey Hart
Honeymoon Suite
Luba
Gordon Lightfoot

Bryan Adams is cool - I met him in person quite a few years ago
He was a lot of fun doing a radio interview

Celine started out as a nudie actress...but a far cry from Shannon Tweed (also from Canada)

What the hell? Pearl Jam is not from Canada you half wits!!! They are from Seattle... Hello? Seattle sound... grunge rock?

Eddie Vedder is actually from Illinois and the rest of the band are from other states.
Only Stone Gossard is from Seattle...but yea, that's where they made their mark.

I have to agree with smearbrick1. Only I think they have sucked since Vs.

Ten in its entirety is phenomenal, and Vs. is equally good. In Vitology, et al., they have been weak. The EP that they did with Neal Young is OK, though.

I will not buy any more. Vedder's drug-induced haze is clouding his lyrics and his relevance.

[Donny661]

I think you have so many "Pearl Jam Who?" because there is no option for haven't heard the album (which would be me )

[Faustus]

Pearl Jam put out 3 good CDs when they first started... each one a little worse the then last. By the 4th disc I could no longer stand them. Their new stuff is no different.

[mmac911]

Pearl Jam Animal was the shit.
I'll have to buy Lost Dogs

If your a big fan like me, you will love any of Pearl Jams live albums (available at CDNOW.com)

[ashtones]

I often wonder what would of happened if Vedder would have blown his head off instead of Cobain.
