Time for 'Bettermen?'

(11/21/02 5:00am)

The great bands of our era are disappearing. With the Pumpkins smashed and Rage machine-less, we must treat each group's release as if it were the last. We have been pleasantly surprised this year by the Chili Peppers' By The Way and sorely disappointed by REM's Reveal. And so when a band like Pearl Jam puts out a new collection, the questions are essential, not just for the artist but for contemporary music in general. Will it please drown out Nickelback? Has the group "sold out"? Has their music changed? Has our music changed?
