Riot Act is the seventh studio album by American alternative rock band Pearl Jam, released November 12, 2002 through Epic Records. Following a full-scale tour in support of its previous album, Binaural (2000), Pearl Jam took a year-long break. The band then reconvened in the beginning of 2002 and commenced work on a new album. The music on the record featured a diverse sound, including songs influenced by folk, art rock, and experimental rock.
Riot Act debuted at number five on the Billboard 200. The band supported the album with a politically-charged concert tour in 2003. Riot Act was the band's last album of all-new material for Epic. The album has been certified gold by the RIAA in the United States.

Recording
Producer Adam Kasper was brought in to work with the band on its seventh album. Kasper had previously worked with drummer Matt Cameron on Soundgarden's 1996 album, Down on the Upside. Riot Act was recorded in two sessions in February 2002 and April 2002 at Studio X in Seattle, Washington.[1][2][3] The album was mixed by Brendan O'Brien at Studio X.[4]
Similar to the process for Yield and Binaural, band members worked on material individually before starting the recording sessions together.[5] According to Cameron, everyone in the band had "four or five" ideas coming into the sessions, and there was "a lot to just kind of weed through and work on."[5] The band often recorded material intended to be demo recordings, but lead vocalist Eddie Vedder would come along and record his vocals afterwards, stating, "I just sang it, that's the take." Guitarist Stone Gossard told Guitar World, "The anal-retentive side of you goes, 'I think I could play better.' But then when the entire band goes "No, it's great as it is,' then you just get in the mood and embrace it."[6] Riot Act was the first Pearl Jam album to feature Kenneth "Boom" Gaspar on organ, most notably on the song "Love Boat Captain". According to Gaspar, the song initially developed out of a jam session he had with Vedder in Hawaii shortly after the two first met. When they were done, Vedder asked Gaspar if he was "ready to go to Seattle."[7] According to Gossard, bringing in Gaspar was about being "open to new things,"[8] while guitarist Mike McCready said that he had always wanted the band to feature keyboards.[9]
McCready described the recording environment as "a pretty positive one" and "very intense and spiritual."[9] Cameron said that producer Adam Kasper created a "really relaxed" atmosphere and that the band was able to complete lot of material in a short amount of time.[9] Vedder set up his typewriter in a corner of the studio and would write lyrics as the band members played their material.[10] Most of the album was recorded live, with Cameron describing the album as "our anti-Pro Tools record."[10] Gossard said that the band fed off Cameron's playing as well as Vedder's excitement about the recording process.[11]
Music and lyrics
Riot Act features a diverse sound, including folk-based and experimental songs. Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic said "Riot Act is the album that Pearl Jam has been wanting to make since Vitalogy—a muscular art rock record, one that still hits hard but that's filled with ragged edges and odd detours."[12] Gossard said "Riot Act really seems to showcase all of our thing. There's the simple rock songs we could have written in the earlier era, but it covers all the different times and dynamics we've had and still holds together."[11] Several songs on the album use alternate tunings, including "You Are", "All or None" and "Bu$hleaguer".[6]
The lyrics on Riot Act were more direct than on preceding records, in response to the political climate after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks. Bassist Jeff Ament told Uncut, "I think the time's right to turn our voice up a bit [. . .] And Ed did it in a great way, with humour and a mystical, magical approach. It isn't just, 'We're pissed off, and fuck you! Riot! Anarchy!' Cos I don't think that's the method. At least at this point." Vedder, however, said, "I have to admit this record came out a bit one-sided. But I think we as a country need to understand why we're involved in the Middle East. This hollow patriotism frightens me." Ament also felt that love was a major theme of the album.[13] A few songs feature lyrical collaborations between Vedder and other members of the group, including one with Ament ("Ghost"), one with Cameron ("You Are"), and two with Gossard ("Bu$hleaguer" and "All or None"). Sole lyrical contributions from band members other than Vedder include Cameron with "Get Right" and Ament with "Help Help". The album's lyrics tackle existential matters ("Love Boat Captain", "Cropduster", and "I Am Mine"), as well as social and political concerns ("Green Disease", "Bu$hleaguer", and "1/2 Full"). The lyrics of "Save You" represent the anger felt by anyone who watches a close friend waste away his or her life.[14] Regarding "Love Boat Captain", Vedder said, "Love is one resource that the corporations aren't going to be able to monopolize."[15] Vedder said that "Cropduster" is "about man's giant ego, that he's the most important thing on the planet."[16] Regarding "Green Disease", Vedder stated he was "mystified" at CEO and corporate-management salaries and "how someone can justify taking that much at the cost of other people's livelihoods."[16] "Bu$hleaguer" is a commentary on President George W. Bush.
Regarding the time period when the lyrics were being written, Vedder said, "There's been a lot of mortality...It's a weird time to be writing. Roskilde changed the shape of us as people, and our filter for seeing the world changed."[17] Several songs on the album were inspired by the June 2000 Roskilde Festival tragedy in which nine people died during Pearl Jam's set. The album's first single, "I Am Mine", was written by Vedder in 2000 in a hotel room before the band's first show after the Roskilde tragedy.[18] "Love Boat Captain" includes brief reference to Roskilde ("Lost nine friends we'll never know... two years ago today"). When it was performed at concerts thereafter, Vedder noted the passing of time by updating the lyrics (by 2008, the lyric was "eight years ago today"). The instrumental track "Arc" was recorded as a vocal tribute to the nine people who died at the festival. Vedder only performed this song nine times on Pearl Jam's 2003 tour, and the band left it off all released bootlegs as an act of respect. Vedder subsequently performed "Arc" many times during his first solo tour in 2008, as well as in 2009 and 2011.
Release and reception
Professional ratings Review scores Source Rating Pitchfork Media (4.9/10)[19] NME (8/10)[20] Q [21] The New York Times (mixed)[22] Allmusic [12] Spin [23] Entertainment Weekly (B)[24] The Guardian [25] Robert Christgau [26] Rolling Stone [27] Riot Act reached number five in the U.S. on the Billboard 200 album chart and number 34 in the UK. The album sold 166,000 copies in its first week of release.[28] The album would end up selling only 508,000 copies in the United States according to Nielsen SoundScan.[29] Riot Act has been certified gold by the RIAA.[30]
Riot Act received generally favorable reviews from music critics according to Metacritic, where it holds a 73 after 20 reviews.[31] NME gave Riot Act an eight out of ten. Reviewer Louis Pattison stated that "Riot Act is the sound of a band entering a powerful middle-age. They still deserve your attention."[20] Allmusic staff writer Stephen Thomas Erlewine gave the album four out of five stars, saying "given several plays, this does indeed seem like the richest record Pearl Jam has made in a long time."[12] Spin gave the album seven out of ten stars. The review said, "Pearl Jam's seventh studio album balances emotive bombast with a taut-sweaty hard-rock attack."[23] Critic Robert Christgau described Pearl Jam on the album as "masters of their own audio, with soft spots where their emotions can go."[26] Rolling Stone staff writer Keith Harris gave the album three out of five stars, saying that "like Neil Young at his most deliberately despondent, Pearl Jam sound purposefully tired."[27] Chris Willman of Entertainment Weekly gave the album a B, saying that Vedder’s lyrics "rarely cohere," and that "too few of the tense rhythmic setups build to the kind of...catharsis that would be something to Riot home about."[24] Q gave the album three out of five stars. The review called the album "An adult rock record in which nuance succeeds over bombast."[21]
Hugo Lindgren of The New York Times stated that the "record sounds as if it were made to slip quietly into the marketplace, connect with the faithful and leave everyone else alone," and that "there's no catchy single, and not even the slightest echo of anything else happening in pop music now." He added that the "band's grooves still sound taut, emotive and world-class."[22] Adam Sweeting of The Guardian gave the album two out of five stars. In the review he stated that "Riot Act isn't one thing or the other: tracks such as "Ghost" or "Get Right" gesture towards hard rock without really putting the hammer down, while a more reflective piece like "All or None" doesn't exploit its own possibilities." Sweeting observed, "On full, Pearl Jam sound like Stillwater, Cameron Crowe's fictional 1970s second-raters from his film Almost Famous."[25] Kyle Reiter of Pitchfork Media said that the album "meanders from one song to the next with an overwhelming insipidness," and stated that it "[brings] them ever closer to homogenous bar-band territory."[19]
Three singles were released from Riot Act. Lead single "I Am Mine" entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number 43, and reached number six on the Modern Rock charts.[32] While "Save You" was released as the second single for North America, "Love Boat Captain" was the second single for international markets.[33] "Save You" did not chart on the Hot 100, but it did place on the Mainstream Rock and Modern Rock charts.[32] Music videos for several songs from the album, including "I Am Mine", "Save You", "Love Boat Captain", "Thumbing My Way", and "1/2 Full", were filmed at Seattle's Chop Suey club in September 2002.[34]
Packaging
The album's cover art, photographed by Ament, features two skeletons wearing crowns, suggesting the possibility that the two represent a king and a queen. The forged metal figurines were created by blacksmith Kenny Gilliam.[35] According to Ament, the band had trouble coming up with a name for the album.[36] After the artwork had been finalized and the tracks were sequenced, the band spent weeks trying to come up with a title. Vedder suggested Riot Act, and the band members went with it as they were tired with trying to come up with a title.[36] McCready stated that the title has no real significance. He said, "I guess we were trying to come up with a title that reflected some of the music on the record, which we thought was urgent-sounding and kind of loud...It just seemed to fit."[9] Ament implied that the title has to do with "getting your act together."[37] The term "riot act" dates back to the Riot Act of 1714 which was introduced by the Parliament of Great Britain giving permission to local authorities to declare any group of more than twelve people to be unlawfully assembled.
Tour
Main article: Riot Act TourPearl Jam promoted the album with tours in Australia, Japan, and North America in 2003.[38] The tours were the band's first with keyboardist Boom Gaspar. The two legs of the North American tour focused on the Midwestern United States, the East Coast, and the West Coast.
The band received much publicity for its energetic politically charged performances during the tour. At many shows during the 2003 North American tour, Vedder performed "Bu$hleaguer" with a rubber mask of George W. Bush, wearing it at the beginning of the song and then hanging it on a mic stand to allow him to sing. The band made news when it was reported that several fans left after Vedder had "impaled" the Bush mask on his mic stand at the band's April 1, 2003 show in Denver, Colorado show at the Pepsi Center.[39] Following a performance of the song at Pearl Jam's April 30, 2003 show in Uniondale, New York at the Nassau Coliseum, the band was met with boos from the crowd and chants of "U-S-A." Vedder responded by defending his right to free speech and the band followed with a performance of The Clash's "Know Your Rights".[40] The song "Arc" was performed by Vedder at nine shows during the second North American leg of the tour as a tribute to the victims of the Roskilde disaster.[41] The Australia, Japan, and North America tours were documented by a long series of official bootlegs, all of which were available through the band's official website, and six of which were released in record stores: Perth, Tokyo, State College, Pennsylvania, two shows from Madison Square Garden, and Mansfield, Massachusetts. The first of two shows at Madison Square Garden was released as the Live at the Garden DVD. Pearl Jam also supported the album's material at a series of political rallies and benefit concerts while preparing for its eighth studio album.

The album's singles featured three B-sides from the Riot Act recording sessions that weren't included on the album: "Down," "Undone" and "Other Side."[42] "Down" and "Undone" were B-sides on the "I Am Mine" single, and "Other Side" was featured on the "Save You" and "Love Boat Captain" singles. All three songs were included on the 2003 Lost Dogs collection of rarities, although "Undone" appeared in a slightly different form. McCready said that "Down" came out lighter than intended, and was ultimately left off Riot Act because it did not fit with the other songs on the album.[43] Also recorded during the sessions was "4/20/02," a song honoring Alice in Chains frontman Layne Staley. It was written by Vedder the day that he heard the news of Staley's death. According to Vedder, the reason it wasn't included on Riot Act was that the band already had too many songs.[14] It was included on Lost Dogs as well, albeit in the form of a hidden track. A recording of "Severed Hand," a song that later appeared on the band's next studio album Pearl Jam, was attempted during the recording sessions; however the band only spent a few hours on the song before it was shelved.[18] "Last Soldier," which appeared on the band's 2001 fan club Christmas single as a live version recorded at the 2001 Bridge School Benefit, was written by McCready following the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks.[14] McCready said the band played around with the song, but never seriously considered recording it for Riot Act.[14]
