Letter To The Editor


Mike Flatt's Nov. 18 review of the new Pearl Jam album was quite disturbing. In this review he includes Eddie Vedder "among the greatest artists of the twentieth century." This is quite possibly the stupidest comment ever printed in The Spectrum! Pearl Jam sucks! I will never understand why people glorify this band as being so great. Pearl Jam has not had one hit off their last three albums, and I'm sure this new one won't be any different, considering the disappointing new single. This means that their last hit was from their 1994 album Vitalogy; eight years without a hit! Four albums of horrible music, not even good enough to be played on the radio! Wow, Vedder must be a musical genius! Pearl Jam are rock gods! I don't freakin' think so! If having one good album (Ten), and two mediocre albums (Vs and Vitalogy) entitles Pearl Jam to have "legendary" status, I guess we can compare U2 with Beethoven!
