Eddie Vedder - Into The Wild solo album -
northern wave - 09-18-2007
Anyone get this today. Itunes has it. It's excellent. The deluxe version on itunes includes the Body of War songs "No More" (both the studio and a killer live version) and "Here's To The State" (live)

Picked it up and listened to it on a flight yesterday..Awesome stuff...Again, very EV, this seems like the perfect project for him...As tacky as it sounds though, I don't hesitate t'say that this'll likely be my sountrack for this adventure abroad of mine....

I picked it up as well and it is very good. Very Mellow for the mostpart but still very Eddie Vedder. Most of the songs are relatively short only 2 or 3 minutes. I would recommed it.

I'm listening to it right now for the first time. They are mainly short songs...and the genre I would classify it in is folky-rootsy-rock. (If that is a genre.) Anyways, its definetly not Pearl Jam... and I'm not saying that as a negative or positive thing... it is what it is.

And a quick little side note...
The guy that produced this album also produced "In Between Evoultion"...and "No Threat".

Yup, that would be Adam Kasper. He's also produced Queens of the Stone Age, Foo Fighters, Soundgarden, Nirvana, R.E.M., The Watchmen, and Pearl Jam's latest album. He also did mixing duties on the Weakerthans' "Reconstruction Site", the Hugh Dillon Redemption Choir's "The High Cost of Low Living", and the Lowest of the Low's "Sordid Fiction". That's one hell of a resume!
As for the Eddie Vedder album, I think it's fantastic. Very different from his day job. I love it!

Normally I cannot stand albums with tracks that are so short, but this one is great! Seems that anything that Kasper puts his name on is incredible.
Well worth the 9.98 :thumb: :thumb:
Can't wait for a Buffalo/Toronto area show from Pearl Jam...any word of a PJ tour out there??

Got it, gave it a few listens. Not a huge fan of it. Maybe it'll grow on me. It's definitely NOT like Pearl Jam, that I can attest to.

There's a "hidden track". Once 'Guarenteed' ends, it goes silent for a period of time. Then the guitar kicks back in, and Eddie half sings/half moans the melody to guarenteed.

I have been listening to this album, and enjoing it very much.
Then all of the sudden I was blown away when I read in the paper today that Sean Penn actually approached Mr. Vedder and asked him to write the soundtrack to a book he was adapting for film.
I had no idea this was the premise behind this.

Charlie Rose had a great interview last week with both Vedder and Penn...

Excellent, EXCELLENT CD!
My wife bought this for me as a "coming home" sort-of-gift for my return from EuroHip. I love it!
Wish it was longer though!
