Can anyone here actually grasp that concept? Reading through some of the posts on these boards, you'd think that anyone who claims to like all the albums is part of some kind of global conspiracy. We're all getting back handers from Eddie to pretend we like all the bands albums. Well I'm sorry, but people tend to join boards of bands they really like. I don't like ANY Westlife albums (not that I've heard any through thank God) which is why you won't see me on a Westlife board pretending I like all their albums. And bands a person really likes, is not completely unlikely to not put out an album that fan doesn't like. I can understand that people who don't like every album have a right to say so. That is fine, and providing they don't express their opinion as fact have every right to feel upset if someone flames them for it. Just don't accuse those of us who say we DO like every album the band's put out of bullshitting, because some of us actually DO like them. That is all.

I agree with the OP. I like all of PJs albums - they are my favorite band for a reason. There are albums I like better than others (like Binaural) and songs that they have written that I absolutely can't listen to (Glorified G, Sweet Lew and Mankind).

I love all the albums. I think No Code is their worst album because I don't love them all equally, but even a subpar Pearl Jam album is still a pearl jam album and is light years ahead of most everything else.
But if we all just came here and masterbated to how great the band was the board would be a lot stickier but less fun.

Just because you're a fan of a band doesn't mean that you have to blindly love everything that they ever do. Most people here understand and accept the idea that we all have different tastes and opinions, and feel comfortable enough to express them. Pearl Jam's music covers a WIDE range and it's impossible for any thinking person to just LOVE every single song.

There's no crying in thread posting!
