Pearl Jam are one of my favourite bands.
People who dont like Pearl Jam confuse me. Therefore I must disallusion myself from them by using pawns like Lilly Allen & co.
As for the vocals I think Eddie Vedder has an excellent voice. i have never heard a bad album from Pearl Jam (I have them all).

Why not theyre a good band, also Ive come to appreciate Alice In Chains alot more since hearing the MTV Unplugged & Jar Of Flies albums.

Both bands are great but Pearl Jam is the band. I was hooked from the first song on the first album. "Once" is so powerful it feels like someone crushing mountains. Plus I'm biased because I drove Eddie in my limo to one of his shows. He was totally down to earth and I got an all-access pass, all the backstage catered food I could eat and carry home and got to see the show for free as well as getting paid to do it. Still have the pass laying around somewhere.

STP rocks too though. Great hooks. Many songs as good as PJs just different. Too bad Weiland is such a ****headjunkiescumbag. If he could stay straight, they could have been bigger than PJ and the whole Seattle scene.

That's your opinion. And i happen to think that Pearl Jam is better.

Its really funny how anyone can think a grunge-turned-alternative group like Pearl Jam is actually superior to...well, anyone, because they really aren't. Assertions like that merely reinforce the notion that you people don't listen to enough different things to know what the hell you're talking about anyway.

Who are you talking to cory? It doesn't really matter anyway because the point of this place is to GIVE your opinions

And just because someone voices a different one, you should take it as a personal offence (As your defensive stance seems to suggest you have)

Why is it confusing that people just have a different opinion from you?

Okay, after I saw how much traffic this was getting, I listened to a pirated Pearl Jam album and....my opinion of them didn't change. Then I went and read the lyrics to all the songs they have that make people cry and I still like Stone Temple Pilots better, even though the subject matter is much more serious.
I see the similarities and I know Pearl Jam was around first, but Pearl Jam is mediocre. It feels like they are the heroin to the Stone Temple Pilot's acid. The lyrics are simple, but not mindblowingly profound. The tunes are fairly catchy, but they seem to go on too long. And I would not pay money for a Pearl Jam album. Sorry, I've stated my case. Bite each other's heads off.
