RobFApr 1, 2009One of the best albums that Pearl Jam has ever recorded in their career. Great bonus tracks with the song Brother included. The MTV Unplugged DVD is great as well!! Recommended album to all music listeners!!!

pauldMar 31, 2009Quite simply one of the finest records ever made - and not just in the 90's. Theres a reason it outsold nevermind, its a truely genre defining piece of work, and hasnt dated one day since it came out, timeless is the word. very highly recommended to all.

ScottAMar 30, 2009This album arguably is the best the 1990s had to offer, but at the very least is 3rd only to Radiohead's OK Computer and Nirvana's Nevermind.

EricSApr 29, 2009I became a fan a few years back, but i was born during their era. I claim to love them now, one of my favorite bands. this albums however is a lot of simple rock chords. A few good songs but not even their best.

adriancMar 27, 200910. I loved it back then. Gave it 10. The remixed version issued now strips it down to its essence. 100% pure american rock. Diamond. 10. i'm falling back in love again.

ToddBJun 13, 2009Well, at least it's their best album.

Dec 9, 2011This album as a whole doesn't quite feel like the classic everyone makes it out to be. Sure Black, Jeremy, Alive, and Even Flow are all really good, solid songs, but they sound kind of dated nowadays. Vs and Vitalogy are by far their best and most vital when it comes defining them as rock legends of the 90's. This album gets too much credit.

Aug 27, 2019Probably the best debut album off all time. The songs still sounds crispy, strong this day.
Not one bad track on the album but many hightlights like: Black, Garden, Jeremy, Even Flow, Why Go.
They just (no one) don´t make it like this anymore. -
Feb 19, 2012Putting the sound war aside, this record should be granted a 10 on the basis of its popular alternate rock skill. Their original, remains an incredible listen, with each and every track providing a different insight into the disenfranchised mind. 'Oceans' will always have a place in my heart, but 'Once' remains the first track I ever heard by them, and it will remain one of my favourites.

Apr 16, 2012Best album ever. All songs are great and you can listen it over and over again. This is a album must have for your cd collection. Buy it don't download
-
Apr 25, 2012Ten is the best album from a largely overrated band. "Alive" is a great song with strong vocals and arguably the best guitar solo of the nineties. Download "Alive" and maybe "Jeremy" and feel comfortable ignoring the rest of the subpar release.
-
Jun 30, 2012One of the best rock albums ever. Diversity is shown between songs such as the slow and calm 'Oceans' and the fast paced 'Porch'. Great lyrics and riffs combined as well as stories told (Jeremy) create a great, great album.
-
Jul 15, 2013This is arguably the most intense, highest emotional album ever, starting from Jeremy ending to the final growl at Release. Its emotional, psychological deepness counts for the best album ever.
-
Apr 22, 201510 out of 10 for ten. The BEST grunge album of all time(tied with Superunknown) Sadly pearl jam never made an album as good as ten but they have come close.
-
Apr 15, 2021Pearl Jam's Ten makes me feel more nostalgic than any other album in the world. To me it's the pinnacle of the '90s and will always be a massive part of me.
-
Apr 29, 2017It smells 90's from head to toe. The only negative is one can argue that Ten hasn't aged that well compared with the other studs from the same decade.
Anyhow, Ten is still a classic. -

Jan 28, 2020Excellent debut album. Great songs, in particular “Black” and “Alive” are 90s classics.
-
Dec 22, 2020One of my favorite albums. Black and Jeremy and Alive, there are so many amazing grunge songs in this album.
-
Jan 2, 2021Near perfection nestled sublimely in the intense wake of a post-Kobain society. This generation of self-loathing and overly critical youth were unwilling to latch onto any new thing for the fear of losing it once again. Then, in some small way it became OK to care again with the rise of Ten...

It's quite arguable that this lean, muscular remix is a marked improvement on the original mix, as it's easier to focus on both the songs and group's interplay.
-
His new take scythes through the original, revealing growls and guitars long obscured—sometimes it’s distracting, but often it lends the songs a newfound jolt.

MojoTen is a classic of the grunge era, its super-sized anthems and introspective pieces powered by Eddie Vedder, a Jim Morrision for the plaid shirt brigade. [Apr 2009, p.116]
