"Grievance" was nominated for the 2001 Grammy Award for Best Hard Rock Performance.

Amidst predictable pre-fabricated teen sensations and saccharine-loaded pop, the sturdy severity that Pearl Jam embraces on its sixth studio album almost seems quaint and archaic. But this stubborn refusal to assimilate makes for some challenging, and eventually rewarding, listening.

Hearing Eddie Vedder bellow on the Who-like bashing of "Breakerfall," and the pounding "God's Dice," shows how much Bush's Gavin Rossdale and Creed's Scott Stapp looked to this San Diego native for inspiration. Former Soundgarden drummer and longtime friend Matt Cameron replaces the departed Jack Irons, and also composes the music for the choppy "Evacuation." Other non-Vedder contributions include the ethereal slide and glide of Stone Gossard's "Of The Girl," and the sparse poignancy of Jeff Ament's "Nothing As It Seems." About the only time Pearl Jam repeats itself is with "Thin Air" a mellow number that could pass as the sequel to the J. Frank Wilson hit "Last Kiss" that the band recorded for the 1999 Kosovar refugee benefit album NO BOUNDARIES. Oddest of all is "Soon Forget," a frothy number that finds Vedder doing a clenched teeth impression of Nick Drake, while making like Arthur Godfrey and accompanying himself on ukulele.

Rolling Stone (6/8/00, pp.117-8) - 3.5 stars out of 5 - "...A warts-and-all album...it comes across as part of an extended conversation among the band....delving into jumpy post-punk and somber meditations, tightly wound folk rock and turbulent, neopsychedelic rockers..."
Spin (7/00, p.149) - 7 out of 10 - "...[They] relax into rock's postures and refine them....Everything you want is still there - goofy experimentalism, guitar frenzy, Eddie's self-abusive wail. It's just more solid, more clear..."
Entertainment Weekly (5/19/00, p.74) - "...Features more vulnerability than anger in its probing words....featuring the most forceful riffs since their best work, VS..." - Rating: B+
Q (7/00, p.121) - 3 stars out of 5 - "...Easy to listen to....When Pearl jam gel...it's close to special....Grunge may have died, but Pearl Jam it seems will never be slayed..."
Magnet (8-9/00, pp.86-7) - "...Near-brilliant...[they] are bravely going into the woods....jolts of psychological amphetamines [and] smoldering slabs of sonic complexity..."
CMJ (5/29/00, p.3) - "...The group delivers a well-rounded work of earthy rock....confidently vacillating between epic power rock, slower, and experimental spacious tracks....[proving] Pearl Jam is still capable of sheer brilliance..."
NME (Magazine) (5/13/00, p.33) - 9 out of 10 - "...It's a seething, furious album; a declamatory statement against cynicism and passivity and the simple injustices of everyday life....An object lesson in rock'n'roll from some true believers, [it] burns with the intensity and desperation of a last stand..."

4 stars Experimentation is good
Nice mix of driving songs and slower ballads. There is plenty of variety in the songs with most of the band members contributing songs. May take a little time to grow on you, but worth it.

This is their last and best album. Straight-up rock with songs to which many of us can relate.

Especially if you've thought that Pearl Jam is only Yellow Ledbetter and Jeremy, this cd is awesome. So many styles on cd, its great.

There is no Pearl Jam album to throw away. This album is as good as Yield and Vitalogy and No Code better in some aspects, worse in others. If Binaural lacks the early Pearl Jam energy, it gains in creativity and maturing. True, however, some songs just don't "catch". Until the middle of the album, the album fails to pick up and every song is just the next one but a close listen to the songs shows that the band have put a lot of efforts into this. "Insignificance" and "Grievance" are probably one of the most violent and bitter charged numbers since "Vs"."Of the Girl" is amazingly superp, and "Thin Air" althoug too short sees Eddie at his vocal best. Elsewhere "Breakerfall" "God's Dice" rock without really rocking and "Light Years" is a more melancholic version of Yield's wondery "Faithful". The strongest point about "binaural" is that it is very solid. And indeed since "Vs" Pearl Jam have been delivering some intriguing experimental moments which may have left their progression too unfocussed. "Binaural" is also a storng standpoint in the band's career in a time where rock no longer existed.

Shakira's brand new English album She Wolf is an uptempo pop album. It is all about synthesizers and electronic concepts, all mixed with the world sounds that we are used to from Shakira.. sounds from countries like India, the Middle East and her home country of Colombia. She Wolf features a predominantly English track list with a follow up album of new and unique repertoire in Spanish to come in 2010. The title track "She-Wolf " boasts the infectious and energizing sound that made Shakira a household name, with a slightly more dancey/ electronic beat (about 125 beats per minute). Though most tracks on the upcoming album will be in English, Shakira chose to service the Spanish version of the first single, "Loba", two weeks before the English single is launched. Last time around, Shakira touched upon so many styles she couldn't be contained on one album, splitting Oral Fixation in two. This time, she focuses on one sound only: a pulsating electro-disco that crosses ...

Anyone familiar with the industrial-metal band's dark sense of irony should take one look at the title of Rammstein's 2009 album LIEBE IST FUR ALLE DA ("Love Is There For Everyone") and conclude that this one is a mean monster. Combining the tightness and punch of their 1998 album SEHNSUCHT with the musicianship and elaborate textures of their later work, LIEBE IST is ...
