Thanks for the compliment, I hold your music taste in high regard and it heartens me to know that you have checked out some stuff Ive posted. As for Pearl Jam, there's a reason I haven't listened to an album of theirs that they've released past me being 22 years old. It's nostalgia for me.
I really don't disagree with you and I'd be bummed out if I thought that you equated my music library with PJ. In the realm of my musical influences PJ is almost non existent. In the realm of the soundtrack to my youth, they're everywhere. As such, I'm able to be transported to a time and place that was special to me when I hear Ten, VS, Vitology and even Yield. Beyond that, I don't think I could name a song or an album. But yeah, I tend to agree about them and the Foo Fighters. Not a lot of soul in there, even less in the FF. I'm surprised that you're not a Neil Young fan. He has some really amazing music. Thanks for the links
