Album Review

Pearl Jam Twenty

Pearl Jam Twenty is a mix of the bands greatest songs over the past twenty years of them being a band. It combines some of their old songs and some of their newer ones. The album does't have an overall meaning to it because each song has a different meaning. The album talks about trusting someone only to find out that they didn't feel the same way as you did. It also talks about how Eddie the lead singer, found out that his dad was really his step dad. The songs “Release” and “Just Breathe” talk about this and his feelings towards it. Other songs like “Black” and “Thumbing My Way” talk about relationships and his experiences with him. Each of these songs has a different meaning too them and mean something too Eddie. Overall, I think that this album was very good and had many good songs on it. I liked how it was kind of like a greatest hit's type of album. You could really get a good taste for how the band is and how they write their music. I would give this album a four out of five rating, I thought that it was put together and written very well.
