Doesn't take away from the fact that he drummed his ass off on DM. Remember the early reports from fall '23? Each of the guys alluded to that once we knew the finishing touches were being applied.

Now, the MIX was terrible in the end, but I don't blame Wottman for that, I blame his mixer buddy (Serb, or whatever).

Matt's departure likely had more to do with the fact that he probably never envisioned 27 yrs with PJ. He has some work he wants to accomplish with the SG crew and getting those last vocal tracks into final form (arrangements, etc). It's also clear he has quite a few other endeavors.

I'm sure PJ took the news graciously even if they were sad to see him go. Side bar: I don't know how you can view any of the other guys as "PJ's Drummer" in the end, unless you really just don't enjoy what MFC brought from a writing and technical stand point. For me, he will always be the band's drummer. Dave A, Dave K, Matt C, Jack I....all just amazing contributors to the body of work, but not "the guy".
This entire take is reasonable IMO.

agree

i think he stepped away from PJ bc he wanted to be totally committed to finishing the SG album and needed sole focus

i was doubting they’d tour but seems more likely if they are playing that NFL halftime show so fingers crossed

As much as Pearl Jam has done since he left, he could’ve still done both.

He could ha e toured with PJ, toured with SG, and still held down a nice corporate gig in HR with Lenny.

These guys may want to tour, hell some dude quit profit sharing a money machine after twenty-seven years, so I would totally want them to pursue the endeavor... just don't call yourselves 'Soundgarden'

Tour, cover old Soundgarden songs, write some new ones
But call it something different
Nothing wrong with calling it something different
Because it is different.

Some things just end
