CoolRanchDressing Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I'd say Jeremy. The lyrical subject matter seems like something that axl would identify with. It's powerful and sensitive at the same time. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Randy Lahey Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 (edited) I'd say Alive. Both Axl and Eddie had to deal with finding out at age 17 that the asshole step dads who raised them weren't their real fathers. That's gotta fuck a lead singer up.

WhazUp Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 (edited) I can imagine Drifting being on GNR Lies, it has this kind of campfire acoustic type of vibe that I can see GNR doing Edited October 5, 2013 by WhazUp Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

WhazUp Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 pearl jam is fuckin' awfulvedder's voice is a nightmareTake the exact opposite of this comment and then you will be on pointPearl Jam is the bar of excellence GNR should currently be trying to aspire to. And Vedder was and is a fantastic vocalist Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rainman_1985 Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I remember Slash saying that one of their 'creative differences' was that Axl was really into PJ whereas he 'hated them with a passion'. I've always been curious what it was Axl was into, especially seeing as PJ generally have a real stripped back 'organic' sound. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RussTCB Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 GN'R and Pearl Jam are completely unique artists. Nothing either of them do really reminds me of the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AndreCC Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 (edited) I have never been able to get into Pearl Jam. I think it's because i feel the frontman has a regular voice...nothing special.The only album i've liked was Ten, and even so i don't listen to it a whole lot...

Amish Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 Eddie Vedder sucks because he pretty much invented the singing style where you put an "r" in every word you say, which would go on to be copied countless times even to this day. It ruins music. Nirvana and Pearl Jam vocals shaped the shitty rock vocals we have today and I've been waiting for that shit to die out since it started. So I don't see any similarities in Pearl Jam and Guns, except that maybe Eddie gave it his all on stage, just like Axl. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
liers Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 None of them really. Maybe Just Breathe to go with TIL, Patience, the softer GnR songs.I like pearl jam. Eddie Vedders voice can get a little annoying at times, but overall he's a good frontman. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mysteron Posted October 5, 2013 Share Posted October 5, 2013 I have never been able to get into Pearl Jam. I think it's because i feel the frontman has a regular voice...nothing special.The only album i've liked was Ten, and even so i don't listen to it a whole lot...When Pearl Jam came out though, they were very different to other bands at the time. The Screaming Trees and other bands were around too, and were ok in their own right, but became popular after PJ developed the sound.. Paw were a good band too actually, I liked their first album. They had a similar feel as wellAnyway, I saw Pearl Jam live when they released Ten, and to this very day, it remains one of the best amazing concerts I have ever seen. I saw Nirvana live between before Nevermind and after Bleach, and thought they were terrible. I like Nevermind later on, but always thought they were awful live.The reason you think Pearl Jam sounds like other bands is that other band copied them later on, same with Guns and any other band that was successful.

liers Posted October 6, 2013 Share Posted October 6, 2013 People are saying Vedder doesn't have a distinctive voice.... They must be deaf.Even before I was into pearl jam.... I recognized his voice whenever I heard it. To me his singing style and voice together are easily recognizable. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
