Part 2/11:
Matt Cameron discusses the fundamental similarities in performing, recording, learning songs, and songwriting across different bands. He emphasizes that his overall approach remains consistent, regardless of the project. However, he highlights a key distinction: with Soundgarden, he was instrumental in shaping the band's unique sound from the ground up, helping define what became their signature style. Conversely, when joining Pearl Jam in 1998, the band was already well-established as legendary figures, prompting him to adapt his drumming to fit their evolving needs.
