Pearl Jam

Though they are responsible for popularizing the Seattle sound and style known as "grunge," Pearl Jam proved to be more than a flash-in-the-pan. Leaping from obscurity to superstardom, the band sold more than 15 million copies of its first two albums.
Vs., its second album, sold a record-setting 1.3 million copies in its first 13 days of release. The band did not make any videos to promote Vs. Instead, it went back into the studio and recorded its third album, Vitalogy which zoomed to Number One. Yield (Number Two, 1998) was straightforward hard rock and was accompanied by the band's first music video since Ten's "Jeremy."
After Vedder and McCready performed with Neil Young at the post-9/11 benefit concert America: A Tribute to Heroes, Pearl Jam returned to the studio for the more experimental Riot Act (2002), which included the Anti-George W. Bush track "Bu$hleaguer." The band spent much of 2005 on the road, headlining shows and opening a couple of dates for the Rolling Stones.
The band struck a deal with Clive Davis' new J Records in early 2006, part of the same Sony BMG music group that controls the band's earlier label Epic Records. The band's first release for the label was a self-titled album that year which found the band returning to its earlier hard-rock sound. The anti-Iraq War single "World Wide Suicide" became the group's first Number One Modern Rock single in a decade. In 2007, the band released a seven-disc box set Live at the Gorge 05/06, recorded at the Gorge Amphitheatre, an outdoor venue in George, Washington. In 2008, the band indicated it has begun work on a ninth studio album.
