well--it's June 1st and so it's time to start an offical best album thread with Avocado included.

For the old thread click here

My vote still goes to Vitalogy. I'd rank the albums like this

1-Vitalogy
2-Ten
3-Avocado
4-Vs
5-Yield
6-Binaural
7-Riot Act
8-No Code

1 - no code
2 - vitalogy
3 - binaural
4 - yield
5 - s/t
6 - vs.
7 - riot act
8 - ten

I go with Ten

Then it would be Vs, and probably Avocado after that
But I don't think there is a bad album out there

No Code

binaural
vitalogy
avacado
yield
no code




riot act
ten
vs


the first five are really close, binaural usually stays on top but the four after that switch around a lot. the bottom three i rarely listen to, although i love a lot of the songs from those albums live.

1 - Vitalogy
2 - Ten
3 - Avocado
4 - Yield
5 - Binaural
6 - No Code
7 - Vs.
8 - Riot Act

EDIT - Ten had the top spot for ages, but Vitalogy is the better album, IMO. Ten's hard to knock because I have an emotional attachment to it (as emo as that sounds )

WRONG

VITALOGY!!!

It will go down as Pearl Jams quintessential album. It's classic. It's Sgt Peppers if you must.

1-Vitalogy
2-Ten
3-Yield
4-Avocado
5-No Code
6-Binaural
7-VS
8-Riot Act

Ten maintains a high ranking largely based on the fact that it was the first album I heard and I've not seen the band often enough to get so bored with the songs.

But you could throw a blanket over 6 to 8, none of which will ever get into the top five, even allowing for weird reassessment.

1. TEN
2. VS.
3. Vitalogy
4. Yield
5. Avocado
6. No Code
7. Binaural
8. Riot Act

That's it. That's the list.

Vitalogy was my favourite for years but now i'm leaning towards Vs.
I love the crisp sound and the energy. Avocado & Yield are very close to a tie but with a closer like inside job, well you know

1-Vs
2-Vitalogy
3-Ten
4-Avocado
5-Yield
6-Lost Dogs
7-No Code
8-Binaural
9-Riot Act

that's better i forgot Lost Dogs (so many great songs) i could listen to all of these albums start to finish regularly except Riot Act which needs to be on the bottom.

My ranks:

1 - Vitalogy
2 - Yield
3 - Pearl Jam
4 - Vs.
5 - No Code
6 - Ten
7 - Binaural
8 - Riot Act

Failed Smile?

New IP address. If it's failed smile he'll say something racist and we'll ban him. It's like a waltz at this point.

Stip..........i have to go with the new one man....it owns me!

I really don't know what to vote!

Things to watch for:

"Old Man Vedder"

"Dirty Mexicans"

"The beast now
that is cool 666"

1. Vitalogy
2. Vs.
3. Avocado
4. Yield
5. Ten
6. No Code
7. Binaural
8. Riot Act

1. Ten
2. Vitalogy
3. Vs.
