If so, delete. If not, here is mine.
1. No Code <--- Smile is my fav. song ever/difficult, but rewarding listen
2. Pearl Jam <--- Come Back, Inside Job nipping at Smiles heals/Most well-rounded album
3. Vs. <--- Also well rounded, but Glorified G, W.M.A. and Leash kill the flow
4. Vitalogy <--- All killer, except for the filler/Best packaging
5. Binaural <--- I hated this album at first, but it’s a grower/Good (preferably Sennheiser) headphones required
6. Ten <--- shouldn't be this low, but this is a "favorites" list, not a "best" album list. there is a difference
7. Yield <--- Again, I have never understood the love for this album. Doesn't flow well. Some of the songs are kinda formulaic
8. RA <--- I hate to say it, but there are some bad songs on here

your posting is somehow understandable. I love Yield though. Such a good album. What you wrote about Vs. is excactly what I'd have written. A fuckin shit song like Glorified G should have never been released - especially not together with so many classics.
I would support the ranking of the new one though. I never bought a pearl jam album which I loved from the beginning on that much. We will probably really see in several months that it is one of the best even if not the best PJ album ever... let's see.
And you are right that Riot Act is by far (far, far, far, far...) the worst thing they ever did. A production for the garbage can (whith the exception of I am Mine which is of course a milestone).

its too early.
that being said, theres no way i'm putting this album ahead of yield and no code, but its got a chance to beat binaural for the 3 spot.
