From the Paper:
"Undoubtedly, Pearl Jam is one of the most successful bands of the 1990's. They write complex songs, both musically and lyrically which appeal to a large audience around the world. They have the musicianship of heavy metal and progressive rock bands from the 1970s while they maintain the anti-corporate and "speak your mind" mentality of the 1980 punk bands. Since the commencement of the their career , they have fought hard to vice what is important to them through their music. Pearl Jam's music will continue to reach people even after they cease to exist as a band."Sample of Sources Used:
