AllMusic

Ten ... benefited from a long gestation period, during which the band honed the material into this tightly focused form; the result is a flawlessly crafted hard rock masterpiece.

Rolling Stone

They wring a lot of drama out of a few declarative power chords swimming in echo.

Entertainment Weekly
Like many of its Seattle cohorts, Pearl Jam also flail about in search of a groove and a song. Occasionally, as in the single ”Alive,” they find both. More often, they lose themselves in a sound that only goes to show that just about anything can be harnessed and packaged.

Tbh this is such an unappreciated grunge album, compared to other grunge projects yes this is such fine but as a rock project itself it’s so fun and catchy and Eddie Vedder’s voice is actually really good, i get that the tone of his voice is a little bit self parody but it works for the music. Imo this is an underrated album
