Pearl Jam has broadened its musical range with subsequent releases. As he had more influence on the band's sound, Vedder sought to make the band's musical output less catchy. He said, "I felt that with more popularity, we were going to be crushed, our heads were going to pop like grapes." By 1994's "Vitalogy", the band began to incorporate more punk influences into its music. The band's 1996 album, "No Code", was a deliberate break from the musical style of "Ten". The songs on the album featured elements of garage rock, worldbeat, and experimentalism. After "Yield" in 1998, which was somewhat of a return to the straightforward rock approach of the band's early work, they dabbled with experimental art rock on the "Binaural" album of 2000, and with folk rock elements on the 2002 "Riot Act" album. The band's 2006 album, "Pearl Jam", was cited as a return to their early sound. Their 2009 album, "Backspacer", contains elements of pop and new wave.
