Pearl Jam, they have been releasing albums since 1991.

Did you just call a pop group "classic rock"?

[–] Jones70 (6887) 2 years ago

Yeah I've always thought they were rock.

They’re more rock than pop.

barely, and I would say they were more alternative rock/pop. Classic rock typically applies to the style of rock from the late 60s and 70s. U2 wasn't big until the 80s.

I never said they were classic rock, I said they were more rock than pop.

I wasn't necessarily disagreeing with you, but with whoever said they were classic rock
