Pearl Jam (or sometimes referred as The Avocado Album[1].) is the eighth studio album by the American alternative rock band Pearl Jam and its debut and only release for J Records (it was also their last album for what was then called Sony BMG, having previously been signed to J's sister label Epic Records for over a decade). Released on May 2, 2006, it was the band's first full-length studio release in almost four years, the longest gap between Pearl Jam's studio albums to date. Following its appearance on the 2004 Vote for Change tour, Pearl Jam commenced work on a new album. The music on the record was proclaimed as a return to the band's roots.

Pearl Jam debuted at number two on the Billboard charts. Pearl Jam was well-received critically, and eventually outsold the band’s previous release, Riot Act (2002). The band supported the album with a full-scale tour in 2006. The album has been certified gold by the RIAA in the United States.

Recording

For the eighth album, Pearl Jam again worked with producer Adam Kasper. Pearl Jam was recorded at Studio X in Seattle, Washington. The band began work on the album following the 2004 Vote for Change tour in November 2004.[2][3] The band worked on the album off and on throughout 2005, with the sessions being interrupted toward the end of the year when the band toured North America and South America.[4] The album was completed in early 2006. Bassist Jeff Ament attributed the length of time recording to lead vocalist Eddie Vedder having a child and the band touring in the middle of recording.[3] The album was mixed by Kasper at Studio X.[5]

In contrast with the process for the band's last three albums, Yield, Binaural, and Riot Act, the band members did not go into the recording sessions with any completed songs, only guitar riffs.[3] Vedder admitted that the band "really went in with nothing."[6] Vedder and Ament said the band sat around playing music together and discussed the song arrangements.[3][7] Ament described it as a "real collaborative effort,"[3] and Vedder described it as "absolute democracy."[8] Guitarist Mike McCready stated that the band members were feeling "fresh and energetic" and "were communicating better than ever."[9] Toward the end of the sessions it came down to Vedder to finish up the material, with Ament observing that "the way the record started and the way that it finished is probably two different things."[10] Regarding his lyric writing process, Vedder wrote four different sets of lyrics for each song.[11]

The resulting material was more up-tempo compared with the band's last few albums. Vedder attributed this to the band writing a lot of material that kept getting pared down, with the band leaving behind mid-tempo songs,[7] while Ament suggested that it was because of the band balancing recording and touring which resulted in "physicality...from being out on the road."[3] The band attempted to create an environment in which McCready and drummer Matt Cameron could play much as they do live.[8] Ament said that there was "a lot of honing of the guitars and vocals in the middle and toward the end," which resulted in the album sounding "more polished."[3] On the overall feeling of the album, Ament said, "The band playing in a room—that came across. There’s a kind of immediacy to the record, and that’s what we were going for."[3]

Music and lyrics

A number of critics cited the album as a return to the band's roots, and McCready compared the material to Vs. in a 2005 interview.[12] Stephen Thomas Erlewine of Allmusic said, "Nearly 15 years after Ten, Pearl Jam finally returned to the strengths of their debut with 2006's Pearl Jam, a sharply focused set of impassioned hard rock."[13] Vedder said, "It's easily the best stuff we've done but also some of the hardest stuff. It's very aggressive, because again, it's kind of a product of what it's like to be an American these days. It's pretty aggressive, especially when you turn it loud."[4] The album begins with a number of up-tempo songs before expanding to a variety of tempos for its second half,[13] with Ament observing that "the front of the record is so extroverted but it ends up so introverted."[14]

Current socio-political issues in the United States are addressed on the album. Vedder credited the birth of his daughter as inspiration, explaining, "Now that I see it as my daughter's planet, I'm even more (angry)."[2] McCready said, "We all feel that we're living in tumultuous, frightening times, and that ranges from the Iraq war to Hurricane Katrina to wiretapping to anything that smacks of totalitarianism. And just bad political decisions being made. We feel that as Americans, and we're frustrated. So a lot of those feelings have come out in these songs."[9] The Iraq War is addressed in the songs "World Wide Suicide", "Marker in the Sand", and "Army Reserve". The lyrics of "World Wide Suicide" depict anger against the war. Other themes addressed on the album include drug use ("Severed Hand"),[15] religion ("Marker in the Sand"), poverty ("Unemployable"), leaving everything behind to start again ("Gone"),[15] and loneliness ("Come Back").[15]

Vedder wrote the lyrics for "Life Wasted" after attending the funeral of Johnny Ramone, and has said the song's lyrics are about the feelings one has after driving home from a funeral.[16] Vedder said that "Gone" is about a man "needing to find a new life without his past, without his possessions, and not really looking for more possessions."[15] Damien Echols, one of the three members of the West Memphis 3, co-wrote the lyrics to "Army Reserve".[17] For the first time McCready contributed lyrics to a Pearl Jam album, writing the lyrics to the closing track "Inside Job". McCready said that he wrote the song after realizing "I had to go inside myself first before I could be open to outside ideas."[9] This is the second studio album by the band that does not contain any profanities in the lyrics (the first being Binaural).

Pearl Jam entered the UK charts at number five, the band's highest position there since 2000's Binaural, while it reached number two in the U.S., selling 279,564 copies in its first week.[27] It was held off the top spot by the Tool album, 10,000 Days.[28] As of July 2009, the album has sold 706,000 copies in the United States according to Nielsen SoundScan.[29] Pearl Jam is considered a comeback hit, outselling 2002's Riot Act, though it has fallen short of the sales of the previous six albums, even 2000's Binaural. However, it was also released during a slow year for album sales, and actually charted higher on Billboard's Top Selling Albums of the Year than either Binaural or Riot Act.[30] According to Billboard, it is the 90th best selling album of 2006.[31] Pearl Jam has been certified gold by the RIAA.[32]

Pearl Jam received generally favorable reviews from music critics according to Metacritic, where it holds a 74 after 28 reviews.[33] The album was named in Rolling Stone's top 50 albums of the year at number 13.[34] Rolling Stone staff writer David Fricke gave Pearl Jam four out of five stars, calling it the band’s best album in ten years. He said it’s "the most overtly partisan—and hopeful—record of their lives," adding that it’s "as big and brash in fuzz and backbone as Led Zeppelin's Presence."[24] Allmusic staff writer Stephen Thomas Erlewine gave the album four and a half out of five stars, saying that "Pearl Jam has embraced everything they do well, whether it's their classicist hard rock or heart-on-sleeve humanitarianism."[13] Chris Willman of Entertainment Weekly gave the album a B+, saying that Vedder’s "passionate howl seems more valuable now, pitted against the navel-gazing emo whine that's commandeered the landscape," and he went on to say that "in a world full of boys sent to do a man's job of rocking, Pearl Jam can still pull off gravitas."[19] Jon Pareles of The New York Times said, "Now as ever, Pearl Jam takes itself seriously. But it delivers that seriousness not with the sodden self-importance of rock superstardom, but with the craft and hunger of a band still proving itself on the spot."[21] Additionally, The Record Review noted that the album was "another step forward for the band and proves that they are one of rock music's most valuable acts to date."[35] PopMatters writer Michael Metivier gave the album a 9/10 rating and viewed it as a progression in "melody and songcraft" over the band's previous work, writing that it "more consistently achieves the grandeur, rage, and beauty they’ve always pursued, throughout its entirety".[23]

Brian D. Schiller of Slant Magazine gave the album three and a half out of five stars. He stated that "the album is at best another good step toward their once great state and not a full return to it. What's true, though, is that it's the group's best full album since Vitalogy."[25] Laura Sinagra of Blender gave the album three out of five stars. She said that "despite Eddie Vedder’s famous mistrust of fame, they’re apparently not ready for total irrelevance—hence this album’s roar back to rocking."[18] Mojo also gave the album three out of five stars. The review said, "[S]elf-titled with good reason: Pearl Jam sound reborn, vital."[36] Kyle Anderson of Spin gave the album three out of five stars. He said that "rather than rage against the time machine, they seem to be having fun...Pearl Jam are taking themselves less seriously, and it fits them like a snug flannel shirt."[26] Mat Snow of The Guardian also gave the album three out of five stars. In the review he stated that Vedder "musters absolute conviction in writing and singing lyrics of male teenage angst." Snow observed, "And though few of these 13 numbers have the drama of tracks by the Who or Led Zeppelin, from whom the band draw much of their style, Pearl Jam play like men on a mission."[20] David Raposa of Pitchfork Media called it the "most consistent effort the group's released since its second album," but he added that it "gets pretty boring pretty @#!*% quick."[22]

Three singles were released from Pearl Jam. The lead single "World Wide Suicide" (backed with B-side "Unemployable", also from the album), was made available through online music stores. "World Wide Suicide" entered the Billboard Hot 100 at number 41, reached number two on the Mainstream Rock charts, and spent a total of three weeks at number one on the Modern Rock charts. Neither of the album's other commercially released singles, "Life Wasted" and "Gone", charted on the Hot 100, but both placed on the Mainstream Rock and Modern Rock charts. Music videos were made for "World Wide Suicide" and "Life Wasted". The video for "Life Wasted" was released to the public through a Creative Commons Attribution-NonCommercial-NoDerivs license allowing copying, distributing and sharing,[37] and was nominated for a MTV Video Music Award for Best Special Effects in 2006.[38] "Big Wave" was featured on the soundtrack to the 2007 Columbia Pictures movie, Surf's Up.

Packaging

The album's cover art, photographed by Brad Klausen, depicts an avocado cut in half with the seed still in place. McCready said, "That symbolizes just kind of...Ed's at the end of the process and said, for all I care right now, we've done such a good job on this record, and we're kind of tired from it. Let's throw an avocado on the cover. I think that's what happened, and our art director goes, hey, that's not a bad idea. I think we were watching the Super Bowl, and we had some guacamole or something."[39] Because the album is self-titled, many fans refer to it as "Avocado" or "The Avocado Album."[40] The inside cover depicts this same seed by itself. The back cover features the same avocado, without the seed. The cover was named in Pitchfork Media's top 25 worst album covers of 2006.[41] Fernando Apodaca handled the liner notes art as well as the music video for "Life Wasted", which emulates the liner notes art from the album.[42] The vinyl pressing of the album is a limited and one pressing issue, just like fellow No Code and Binaural albums.

On the choice of a self-titled album, Vedder explained, "In the end, we thought there was enough there with the title of the songs, so to put another title on the album would have seemed pretentious. So, really, it's actually Nothing by Pearl Jam."[43] During the making of the album Vedder considered the title Superun-owned, a play on Soundgarden's 1994 album, Superunknown. He explained, "We're un-owned. We want to remain un-owned."[4]

Those who pre-ordered the album through Pearl Jam's official website received a version of the album with different CD art and packaging than the retail version. Instead of the retail digipack packaging, this fan club pre-order version resembles a book and has the liner notes bound inside it. In addition, a live CD of the band's show on December 31, 1992 at The Academy Theater in New York City was also included with the pre-order.

Tour

Main article: Pearl Jam 2006 World Tour
Eddie Vedder on stage with Pearl Jam in Pistoia, Italy on September 20, 2006.

Pearl Jam promoted the album with tours in North America, Europe, and Australia in 2006.[44] The first leg of the North American tour focused on the Northeastern United States, and then the band moved to the Midwest and the West Coast for the tour's second leg.

Pearl Jam went on to tour Europe for its first time in six years. The Band played a small secret show at the Astoria in London which was the first concert the new material was played at. The band headlined the Reading and Leeds Festivals in August 2006, despite having vowed to never play at a festival again after Roskilde. In an interview in advance of the band's return to the festival circuit, guitarist Stone Gossard commented, "It seems like an era to trust that we're aware enough to get through those bigger shows. We have a heightened awareness of what needs to happen every night so people are as safe as they can possibly be."[45] Vedder started both concerts with an emotional plea to the crowd to look after each other. He commented during the Leeds set that the band's decision to play a festival for the first time after Roskilde had nothing to do with "guts" but with trust in the audience.[46] On September 19, 2006, at the Torino, Italy show at Palaisozaki, Pearl Jam played Pearl Jam in its entirety in order mid-way through its set.[47] After Europe, the band headed to Australia and then finished the year with two shows in Hawaii. The official bootlegs on this tour were available in MP3 and lossless FLAC formats. The band's shows at The Gorge Amphitheatre were released as part of the Live at the Gorge 05/06 box set. A DVD documenting the band's shows in Italy entitled Immagine in Cornice was released in 2007.

The version of the song on Tone features vocals by Ament and music taken from the original demo version of the song.[48]
