Yield is the best Pearl Jam record and one of my favorite rock and roll records ever. Lyrically and musically, it touches on everything the band is great at. My only complaint is that it is the only PJ record that doesn't end on a sad/contemplative note, and I like that better. It is a very underatted album. Mainly I think because the time period and the public's changing tastes. It's the album I play for people who aren't PJ fans to win them over.
The music, the lyrics, locals, and producition are the overall best. "U" should have made the record, though.
Yield is one of the best records of the 90...i think the wholw production is awesime, the guitars work...well i think is the best since vs...
and there are so many songs...
i fell sad that they dont play them live so much...i would love to hear brain of j more often, NO WAY, fuckin classic...and all those yesterdays... is juts a poem..
Yield is the prize possession of a band that has declined since. The pinnacle of their creative genius. Not only my favorite PJ record but my favorite record of all time (notching out Euphoric Morning).
The only negative about the album, and this is a stretch, is that it guaranteed everything after it would not be as good.
It was also (yield) a point in Ed’s career when he stopped singing like he did in the days of old. On Binaural and Riot act he took to mumbling. I personally think he did it intentionally (God knows why), too quick to have been from age. It is a shame really. I miss the old Ed.
I like Yield. I think it was a change of pace for Pearl Jam as it went more straight forward rock from the quieter No Code. It also featured Mike McCready writing a lot on the record which just added to the shake up.
It's probably my second favorite Pearl Jam album behind No Code. Actually, it might be third behind Binural (I usually change my opinion on which I like better between Yield and Binural).

Best album ever made.
Even better than the Judgement Night soundtrack?
