No Code was the most inventive release from a popular grunge band up to that point but it was a genre shift essentially so grunge purists don't like it
Pearl jam fucking sucks
they could've been male edie brickell
Yeah instead they became the biggest grunge band following Nirvana that somehow still maintains a more rabid fan base while literally the rest of the big 4 are dead. Man what could've been. Not to mention they each live like actual adults with their families whilst dudes like Cornell khs for some reason
