And why not? They produced great CDs and were one of the premier metal bands in the 80s and 90s. What's not to like? Christ, like Pearl Jam was a good influence? I like them and all but the grunge scene they were a part of set metal back a good 5 years and all but destroyed hair/arena rock.

The good thing about Pearl Jam, however, was that they weren't a pure "grunge" band (their more recent material is far from), nor areana rockers, and notably resented their public spotlight. Plus, I quite like the whole 90's "grunge" (I hate that word) / Alternative scene. Much better than the random, formulaic crap spewed out nowadays. Linkin Park? Nickleback? Blink 182? It's like a cruel joke.
