Ok, I've managed to get a good feel for this album. I absolutly love it. The band have done themselves proud with this release. Way better than Riot Act, I'd say it was better than Binaural as well. Album highlights, for me, include Life Wasted, Marker in the Sand, Gone, Come Back and Inside Job. It's all superb music, heartfelt with top Vedder (and McCready) lyrics. A very solid album that I feel I can listen to all of the way through without the need to skip tracks.

Roll on Leeds Festival!
