I am a huge Pearl Jam fan...huge. I think their first 5 albums are absolute classics, and the following 3 are all solid. And I hate to compare the two bands because I love them both.

But the music that Nirvana was releasing, especially on those two albums, was groundbreaking. In fact, of all the grunge bands, no newer band has ever come close to sounding like Nirvana..not even close. There are countless Pearl Jam and Alice In Chain rip off bands, but anyone who tries to sound like Nirvana just can't pull it off. Cobain was a true original.
