Vs is the second studio album by the American Rock band Pearl Jam. Release in 1993, this grunge album would see the band adapt to a rawer, more aggressive sound compared to their previous album Ten.
After the massive success that was their album Ten, the band felt the pressure of trying to match the album’s previous success. Therefore the band took their time with the recording of this album, by finishing one track at a time rather than having multiple tracks being created at the same time.
Lyrically the album focuses on a wide range of themes such as child abuse, gun culture, police racism, and the media. Such dark themes meant that victims of these scenarios felt seen and understood, helping in the album’s success.
