I also agree the drums sound like garbage on this. Album seems pretty muted, nothing special from Ed or any of the guests. Wont be listening to this again.

Baffled by the excellent reviews this album is getting. It is muck. That is perhaps the worst drum sound since Ulrich's snare.

eddie's most diverse solo album. some good, some average, some questionable. The song with elton
john should be banished from existence.
edit: the good songs on here are really great (invincible, power of right, rose of jericho). some
weak songs brought this down, but better than the average ratings suggest if you're a PJ/Eddie
fan.

Thankfully, 2011' s Ukelele Songs was a one-off outing for Eddie Vedder and it did not
signify his fall in the black hole of the Hawaiian four-stringed. Earthling is a set of
songs that willingly embrace the middle ground with Vedder's baritone and soulful voice sounding
so convincing and breezy at the same time. There are moments where the sounds are superficially
similar to Pearl Jam and refer to the band's garage-rock days back in the 90's. The bulk of the
album’s drum duties are covered by Chad Smith and the guitars by RHCP alumni Josh Klinghoffer.
However, the heavy guns of collaboration come near the album's end: the joyful piano of Elton John
in a free-spirited "Picture", the wild harmonica of Stevie Wonder backing the wildly punk riff in
"Try" and the romantic "Mrs. Mills" with Ringo Starr behind the drum kit.
Recommendations: "Brother the Cloud", "The Haves", "Long Way", "Mrs. Mills", "Fallout Today"

Ed is a daddy now, and daddies plays dad rock. Its ok, could have been worst.
