Description: Pearl Jam were in a dark place when they began cutting Riot Act in early 2002. They were still reeling from the accidental death of nine fans at the 2000 Roskilde Festival, and the 9/11 terrorist attacks were just five months in the past. The result is a rather dark album that was released with little hype. No song on the album sounds even remotely like a commercial single, though songs like "I Am Mine," "Love Boat Captain" and "Thumbing My Way" are quite beautiful. George W. Bush was near the peak of his popularity, but Eddie had the balls to write "Bu$hleaguer," a scathing indictment of the president who was "born on third, thinks he got a triple." The disc also marked the first effort with organist Kenneth "Boom" Gaspar; he's been with them ever since. The group took a four-year recording break after Riot Act, and when they emerged, they seemed a little less afraid of pop hooks.
