Album Description
Available in: Country Icon Country Icon
Ten é o álbum de estreia da banda grunge estadunidense Pearl Jam, lançado em 27 de agosto de 1991 através da Epic Records. Após a saída do baixista Jeff Ament e do guitarrista Stone Gossard de seu grupo anterior Mother Love Bone, os dois recrutaram o vocalista Eddie Vedder, o guitarrista Mike McCready e o baterista Dave Krusen para formar o Pearl Jam em 1990. A maioria de suas canções começaram como jams instrumentais, a que Vedder adiciona letras sobre temas como depressão, desabrigados e abuso.

Ten não foi um sucesso imediato, mas no final de 1992 ele tinha alcançado o 2º lugar na parada Billboard 200. O álbum produziu três singles de sucesso: "Alive", "Even Flow" e "Jeremy", além da canção "Black", que não foi um single,mas também teve sucesso. Enquanto o Pearl Jam foi acusado de saltar para o grunge na época, Ten foi fundamental na popularização do rock alternativo no mainstream. O álbum foi certificado treze vezes platina pela RIAA nos Estados Unidos, vendendo cerca de 13.500.000 cópias, e permanece como o álbum mais bem sucedido do Pearl Jam.

User Album Review
There are several reasons why people disliked Pearl Jam. Some of theses reasons may not have quite the potency they did: mainly they were seen as a far more corporated rock proposition compared to the cooler, 'no sell out' purism of Nirvana (though Kurt Cobain not liking Pearl Jam probably did them more favours in the long run); oh, and let's not forget their responsibility in popularising the ghastly long shorts that blighted men’s fashion during that period.
Formed from the remnants of Seattle bands - the highly regarded Green River and the wonky glam tartery Mother Love Bone ”“ Pearl Jam had plenty going for them, but suffered at the hands and snobbery of the purists who found such things as ambition offensive. Originally released in the US in August 1991 ”“ a month before Nevermind - Ten, thus, arrived over in the UK in the midst of a mildly embarrassing 'grunge explosion' in February 1992.
Ten offered up a selection of some of the band's best tunes ”“ Alive, Even Flow, Once and Jeremy all feature on here ”“ all far more indebted to classic rock structures than aping the Pixies. The remastered album offers up a far rawer and pleasing sound, more akin to the band's true sound. These four special deluxe editions go a bit overboard with their various formats. Why now? It's not entirely certain. A couple more years and it'll be the twentieth anniversary of its release. Perhaps someone doesn't want to re-live that era of being overshadowed by Nevermind again.
Now in the 18 years since they fled the picky spotlight and offers of grunge fashion spreads, they've gradually became one of America's great rock bands, finally matching the ambition that they were so sneered at for having. They've taken on Ticketmaster, continued to carry on filling vast sheds the world over. Their contemporaries? Well with Nirvana we have an idea, however for Screaming Trees, Alice In Chains, Soundgarden and anyone else capable of wearing a plaid shirt correctly, it all went to various levels of hell. Pearl jam, and Ten both abide, thanks very much
