Description Hide Show LP – Limited Edition Clear Vinyl Reissue to commemorate the 30th anniversary of the Pearl Jams seminal sophomore full-length offering. Pearl Jam arrived like a tidal wave with Ten in 1991, unassumingly emerging as one of the most popular bands in rock music and culture at large. With all eyes on them for a follow-up, the musicians opted to hold nothing back, cut deeper, and deliver a dark and dynamic 12-track opus in the form of Vs. Powered by classics such as the heartbreakingly introspective Daughter, acoustic nostalgia of Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town, primal punked-up fury of Blood, and downright raw catharsis of Leash, the album found the group at its rawest. From the explosion of Go through the poignant exhale of Indifference, it traced a journey through insecurity and uncertainty in the face of unwanted fame, stared down heavy themes such as abuse and neurodivergent learning disorders, raised a middle finger to Americas gun obsession and police brutality, tackled the topic of suicide fearlessly, and even managed to let light peek through the cracks with some of the groups most treasured anthems ever. In a 1993 Rolling Stone interview with Cameron Crowe, Eddie Vedder shared, Music is an incredibly powerful medium to deliver a story by. But the best thing is, you have to have volume. Youre supposed to play it loud. I would do anything to be around music. You dont even have to pay me. Vs. is the sound of a band who wont compromise its message or meaning. Its the moment the tide really turned It also notably marked the first of many albums to be helmed by longtime collaborator Brendan OBrien, kicking off a now three-decade partnership with the producer. Upon arrival, Vs. smashed records by moving over 950,000 copies during its first five days in stores, eclipsing the sales of the rest of the entire Billboard Top 10 combined. It clinched #1 on the respective chart for five weeks, logging the longest run at the top for any Pearl Jam release to date. It held the record for most albums sold first-week for the next five years and set the record for most first-week vinyl sales, which would stand for the next 20 years. Moving 10 million units worldwide, Vs. has since gone 7x-platinum in the States. Meanwhile, Daughter just reached RIAA platinum status, while Elderly Woman Behind The Counter In A Small Town has gone gold. Retrospectively, Rolling Stone hailed, Pearl Jam emerged victorious with Vs., an album that still stands as one of the strongest records of their long and storied career. Looser, heavier and angrier than their debut, Vs. found the band exploring new sounds and dynamics. Billboard proclaimed, To date, the sophomore set that proved the band could do things its own way a tactic that directly helped make its longevity possible. Additionally, Pearl Jam and Legacy Recordings celebrate the 30th Anniversary of Vs. with a brand new Spatial Audio Mix of Album Available Tomorrow (October 20th) on Apple Music alongside new visualizer videos for each track on the album. Not to mention, Pearl Jams tenth full-length LP and fan favourite Lightning Bolt also celebrates its 10th anniversary this week. It originally dropped on October 15, 2013 and became the groups fifth #1 debut on the Billboard 200. Brendan OBrien produced Lightning Bolt, and it will also be released in Spatial Audio on October 20th. Product Reviews Hide Show Write a Review
