Since Pearl Jam emerged out of the Seattle grunge scene along with Nirvana back in the early ‘90s, the band has had a sterling record in terms of its social conscience and a spotty one musically. The two elements haven’t always added up to commercial and/or critical success. But Eddie Vedder and the boys are back with a new release simply titled, “Pearl Jam,†and sporting half of an avocado on the cover. Why an avocado I couldn’t tell you, but I’d like to think that maybe the group feels cover art isn’t as important as what’s inside. In this case, the new CD has much of the raw power and earnestness that made Pearl Jam relevant in the first place. Some of the better cuts on the album include the single “World Wide Suicide†as well as “Unemployable†and “Army Reserve.†When grunge meets avocado, the results are unexpectedly appetizing. (J-Records)
