Is there a Pearl Jam album in which you dig absolutely every track?

Like every song is 5 star awesome? Or just that you like every track and it has no skippers?

Vitalogy for me with Yield being a close second.

their other albums feel more like collections of songs while Vitalogy and Yield keep me on my toes as good movies do.

If you mean every song is jaw dropping amazing no.

But if you mean that ever song is good even if they aren't all great then I'd say Ten & Vs.

I don't think there has ever been a perfect album though.

I kinda feel the same way. I love No Code the most of any of their albums, but as far as cohesive albums are concerned, Vs., Vitalogy, and Yield may be their best.

Maybe so, but the highs from No Code / Yield, to these ears, are better than anything on Ten or Vs (sans maybe RVM).

I don't know if they have any album where every song is a 5-star classic. But I can listen straight through Vitalogy and Yield and think the whole experience is outstanding. They're the two albums for PJ I'd put in the time capsule.

Pretty much. Such a golden period for the band. Young, full of fire and passion.

Echo-ing the 'not all five-star tracks but i can listen all the way through' sentiment, i'd go with ten, vitalogy and binaural.
