If that is the case, whoever wrote that would be wrong.
because of yield, yes, but i won't argue with rolling stone if they say no code is pearl jam's best. respectable.

I wouldn't either, because No Code is my favorite PJ album. But I don't think the new one is as good as Yield. This is a premature opinion that could change once I hear the official release, but that's highly unlikely.

Actually, Best in ten years doesn't imply they think No Code is THE best, only that this is the best since No Code. The morons at RS probably still think Ten is the best PJ has ever done. But then again, I use RS to wipe my hairy ass, so what do I know.
It's hard for me to chose a 'best' album, but one things for sure: Vitalogy-No Code-Yield is the best three consecutive albums in a row by any band.

yes, i agree. what it does mean is that they think this album is better than yield-binaural-riot act. i haven't heard it so i can't argue.

Who is this Rolling Stone guy?... did Mr. Stone also review all of the other Pearl Jam albums?... the exact same Mr. Stone?
it's not science, but it's good to know that they'll be giving positive feedback... anyone remember if PJ got the front page for Riot Act?... or what it said?

the people at rolling stones are idiots. It's clearly the best PJ record in 12 years.
Sean Wilentz, the guy who is apparently writing that Bush article, is VERY smart. that should be a good read.
