"Life Wasted" is a song by the American rock band Pearl Jam.
 Featuring lyrics written by vocalist Eddie Vedder and music written by guitarist Stone Gossard, "Life Wasted" was released on August 28, 2006 as the second single from the band's eighth studio album, "Pearl Jam" (2006).
 The song peaked at number 10 on the "Billboard" Modern Rock Tracks chart.
 On "Pearl Jam", "Life Wasted" is reprised as a modified version on the album's tenth track, "Wasted Reprise".
Riot Act is the seventh studio album by American rock band Pearl Jam, released on November 12, 2002 through Epic Records.
 Following a full-scale tour in support of its previous album, "Binaural" (2000), Pearl Jam took a year-long break.
 The band then reconvened in the beginning of 2002 and commenced work on a new album.
 The music on the record featured a diverse sound, including songs influenced by folk, art rock, and experimental rock.
 The lyrics deal with mortality and existentialism, with much influence from both the political climate after the September 11, 2001 terrorist attacks and the accidental death of nine fans during Pearl Jam's performance at the 2000 Roskilde Festival.
Vs. is the second studio album by American rock band Pearl Jam, released on October 19, 1993 through Epic Records.
 After a relentless touring schedule in support of their 1991 debut album "Ten", Pearl Jam headed into the studio in early 1993 facing the challenge of following up the commercial success of its debut.
 The resulting album, "Vs.", featured a rawer and more aggressive sound compared with the band's previous release.
 It was the band's first collaboration with producer Brendan O'Brien, and their first album with drummer Dave Abbruzzese.
Backspacer is the ninth studio album by the American alternative rock band Pearl Jam, released on September 20, 2009.
 The bandmembers started writing instrumental and demo tracks in 2007, and got together in 2008 to work on an album.
 It was recorded from February through April 2009 with producer Brendan O'Brien, who had worked on every Pearl Jam album except their 1991 debut "Ten" and 2006's self-titled record—although this was his first production credit since 1998's "Yield".
 Material was recorded in Henson Recording Studios in Los Angeles, California and O'Brien's own Southern Tracks Recording in Atlanta, Georgia.
 The music on the album—the shortest of the band's career—features a sound influenced by pop and new wave.
 The lyrics have a more optimistic look than the ones in the politic-infused predecessors "Riot Act" and "Pearl Jam", something frontman Eddie Vedder attributed to the election of Barack Obama.
The Pearl Jam "Official" Bootlegs are a large, continually growing series of live albums by the American alternative rock band Pearl Jam.
 Pearl Jam noted the desire of fans to own a copy of the shows they attended and the popularity of bootleg recordings.
 The band had been open in the past about allowing fans to make amateur recordings, and these "official bootlegs" were an attempt to provide a more affordable and better quality product for fans.
 The band has sold more than 3.5 million copies of shows since launching the bootleg series in 2000.
 The official bootlegs are a complete record of almost every show the band plays, excluding club "warm-up" dates.

 Following a full-scale tour in support of its previous album, "Yield" (1998), Pearl Jam took a short break before reconvening toward the end of 1999 to begin work on a new album.
 During the production of the album, the band encountered hindrances such as singer Eddie Vedder's writer's block, and guitarist Mike McCready's entrance into rehabilitation due to an addiction to prescription drugs.
