The Kerrang! staff’s top albums of 2024
You’ve seen the Kerrang! albums of 2024. Now check out what the staff were all listening to this year…
Pearl Jam's Ten and No Code (turning 30 and 25, respectively) have been redone in Dolby Atmos and Sony 360 Reality Audio by producer Josh Evans.
Pearl Jam are celebrating two huge album anniversaries today (August 27): 30 years of Ten, and 25 years of No Code.
To mark both milestones, the band have released new digital-edition mixes of the two records, created by producer Josh Evans in Dolby Atmos and Sony 360 Reality Audio for 'state-of-the-art immersive listening experiences'.
"These two albums sound amazing in the immersive format," says Josh. "For Ten, the goal was to create the best version of the record, bigger, wider and higher fidelity; now, it actually sounds as great coming out of your speakers as it does in your memory of hearing it the first time.
"25 years ahead of its time, No Code almost sounds like it was intended to be an immersive album; experimental layers, nuance and raw aggression are all amplified and expanded in a simultaneously bigger and more intimate experience."
On top of the new mixes, PJ and their Ten Club are streaming a show from October 17, 2014 in Illinois where the band played No Code in full – catch it for free on YouTube between 5pm, and Monday, August 30 at 11:59pm.
Happy birthday, Ten and No Code!
