Reviews
Included in Rolling Stone's "Essential Recordings of the 90's.", "...VITALOGY is a deeply thought-out representation of what fame means, and the vision it describes is not pretty....includes themes of diverted passions, frustration and amorphous discontent...", 4 Stars - Excellent - "...anything but the sound of a band stuck in a rut....It speaks volumes for Pearl Jam's continuing creative acumen that they can respond so confidently to a new punk scene that has sprung up...as a reaction to the lumbering heaviosity ...of the old grunge pioneers...", Ranked #40 on Nme's List of the `Top 50 Albums of 1994.', Ranked #25 in the Village Voice's 1994 Pazz & Jop Critics Poll., "...In 1994 rawness, unpredictability and artistic depth are rare....America's most popular rock'n'roll band boasts all three attributes--and sounds damn fine to boot...", Ranked #5 on Spin's List of the `20 Best Albums of '95.', "...one seriously demented record...VITALOGY leaves an odd, unsettling aftertaste. You walk away from it energized, but wondering what price Eddie Vedder, and Pearl Jam, will ultimately pay for it..." - Rating: B+, 4 Stars - Excellent - "...it's a wildly uneven and difficult record, sometimes maddening, sometimes ridiculous, often powerful..."
