    Gonna give this another spin before doing my AOTW Club review. I thought it was pretty good mostly. "Chains & Whips", "P.O.V" and "So Be It" are absolutely fire. I'm a bit mixed on the production on some of the tracks, and Pharell's vocals weren't really my cup of tea on this. Still, Push and Malice absolutely tear their verses up, and I'm overjoyed to have them back

    Oh so you do new albums of Clipse… yet you haven’t reviewed TDOSS mourners edition. I get it, I’m use to rejection. Fake Stan’s in my mentions, “This A.I. Gimmick is s---”. But midgets, it’s addictive. I can sound like Kendrick with just a switch flick
    “Ridin' in my GNX with Anita Baker in the tape deck
    It's gon' be a sweet love”
    Now watch Slim spit it
    “Writing on Kim’s Breast, like an elite painter. Micheagelo in the flesh, i treat it like paper, Bruh”

    332. Pearl Jam - Ten (1992) [July 12th, 2025]

    When it comes to the "Big Four" of Grunge, Pearl Jam has always been a bit of an outlier for me. I've always been into darker soundscapes of bands like AiC and Soundgarden more, and Pearl Jam just never really did it for me. One of my favorite teachers in High School was a big fan though, so I've always tried to have an open mid with them As a direct offshoot to Grunge pioneers Mother Love Bone, Pearl Jam has a lot of history preceding it's debut record, and thankfully, there are lots of good elements present throughout Ten.

    First off, I think that "Even Flow", "Alive" and "Why Go" are great. Every member pulls their weight on the album too. Eddie Vedder is a pretty good vocalist (even if he is a bit hard to understand at times), and Mike McCready has always been an incredible guitarist. Despite this, Ten never really "hooks" me, y'know. Even though it has songs I like, and the rest of the album definitely has quality throughout, I just never seem to fully get into it. I don't know, maybe next time.
