Pearl Jam - Live Performance of 'State of Love and Trust' in Hyde Park
In 2010, when Pearl Jam performed "State of Love and Trust" live at Hyde Park, they were enjoying a resurgence in their career following the release of their ninth studio album, "Backspacer," in 2009. This album marked a shift for the band, showcasing a more streamlined sound and a greater emphasis on melody, which appealed to both long-time fans and new listeners. Interestingly, "Backspacer" was notable for being released through the band's own label, Monkeywrench Records, illustrating their commitment to artistic independence. The Hyde Park performance occurred during their extensive tour, which celebrated their enduring legacy and showcased their ability to captivate large audiences. This concert also came at a time when Pearl Jam was being recognized more than ever for their influence on rock music, underlined by their induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame just a few years prior in 2017.
