    Pearl Jam because they are Seattle royalty. Choosing Beck is like choosing UCLA, a soft pussy that is an afterthought to the legendary bands that have come from LA.

    Beck is a fucking awesome musician. Played for years as a street musician in Los Angeles. I can actually say I saw him play way back then at an afterparty in 1991. I should have bought some of those old demo tapes when I had a chance. God knows what they're worth now.

    Pretty much this. Beck at least makes some interesting and different music. PJ is just some mid shelf grunge rock. I don't mind it but I'd probably rather be listening to a better band.

    Pearl Jam is music you put up with in someone else's car

    Yeah, I don’t think Pearl Jam comes to mind for most people when you’re looking for music to get you in the mood. If anything, their songs would kill the mood.

    See “Better Man”.

    There was a time in my life when I really liked Beck and Pearl Jam, but I’ve outgrown them for the most part. Don’t hate ‘em, but not going to go out of my way to listen to them either.

    I don’t like Pearl Jam much, but Beck sucks.
