Pearl Jam

I still remember back in the early 90's when I first heard about Pearl Jam, together with Red Hot Chili Peppers, they're one of my most favorite bands. A 90's band that just wont die.

16 years and 12 albums later, Pearl Jam still tours Europe and many parts of the world regularly. Though everyone can see the group is much older now, they really aged well. Eddie Vedder still sings well, tho sometimes a little hoarse, he still got the voice.

As of December 2006, Pearl Jam has sold over 31 million records in the U.S. alone and is one of the few currently active bands from the alternative rock breakthrough of the early 1990s, and is considered one of the most influential bands of that era. In a 2005 USA Today readers poll, Pearl Jam was voted the greatest American rock band of all time. In April 2006, Pearl Jam was awarded an Esky for best live act in Esquire's Esky Music Awards.

Pearl Jam is my favorite rock band of the 90's. They took the grunge rock to the next level and basically responsible for its rocks success.
