 HIDDEN YIELD SIGNS

BRAIN OF J
Raw music ,energetic vibes....."the whole world will be different soon...."

FAITHFULL
Almost sounded like Tremor Christ....whatever!

NO WAY
A good song. My favourite.

GIVEN TO FLY
A song that should be put in Ten. A true Pearl Jam song

WISHLIST
Melodic.....a classic wish

PILATE
Jeff read the book "The Master and Margarita" by Mikhail Bulgakov which is about a man named Pilate who (in one point in the book) stands on a mountain with a guitar and his dog. Pilate is growing old and all the dog does is "obeys listens kisses loves." What he wants is a conflicting partner to love instead of being alone. Jeff is like Pilate (he has a dog and a guitar and the Pilate picture in the liner notes shows Jeff on top of a mountain).

DO THE EVOLUTION
Punk rawk ....it is like reinventing the 70's

RED SPOT
Another experimental song by Jack Irons.

MFC(Many Fast Cars)
A song from Vedder....neatly done.Stands for "Mini Fast Car." When the band was in Italy, Eddie was amazed at the small cars that went super fast.

LOW LIGHT
Ament masterpiece."Low Light" could be the follow up to Pilate. In "Low Light," Pilate (or whomever) finds comfort, and learns to live with it while being alone.

IN HIDING
A classic...When your a star, you need to hide out sometimes. Things dramatically change

PUSH ME, PULL ME
No comments

ALL THOSE YESTERDAYS
Sounded like the Beatles...

HUMMOUS(Bonus song)
The guys fooling around in the studio after Eddie left the studio.
