While Vedder remains the face and voice of the band, the star of this album is drummer Matt Cameron, who joined the Jam in 1998 after starting out with Soundgarden. His relentless pounding opens many of the 11 tracks, and drowns out his bandmates' playing and Vedder's vocals at times. “Every time I've played someone the record it was like a two-day recovery,” Vedder said. The band members credited Watt, who was less than a year old when their first album “Ten” was released in 1991, for lifting them to the heights they hit.

April 17 (Reuters) - Grunge music pioneers Soundgarden and Vicky Cornell, the widow of lead singer Chris Cornell, have settled a legal dispute over the late singer's unreleased recordings, according to a joint post from their Instagram accounts on Monday. They said the "amicable" settlement marked a new partnership between Soundgarden and Cornell's estate that will allow fans to "hear the final songs that the band and Chris were working on." She claimed the band members withheld the estate's share of royalties to "strong arm" her into giving them unreleased recordings Chris Cornell made before his death in 2017. Her lawsuit argued that Cornell recorded the songs separately from the band and that he was their sole owner. The band countersued her for refusing to turn over the recordings, which it said were meant for a Soundgarden album for UMG.
Since his emergence on the jazz scene in the early ’90s, pianist Brad Mehldau has become well known for a supple touch on the keyboard and unique, spiky compositions, but much of his stellar reputation is built on his choice of other repertoire. Shortly after he began recording as a leader, he surprised jazz aficionados with exceptional covers of songs by Radiohead, Soundgarden, Massive Attack and many others from rock and electronic music. He made this material sound like a natural part of jazz, presenting it alongside more conventional fare such as the music of Thelonious Monk, John Coltrane and Antônio Carlos Jobim and other standards. After several recent releases that focus more on original material, he’s returned to other people’s music with his latest recording, “Your Mother Should Know: Brad Mehldau Plays the Beatles” (Nonesuch, Feb. 10 release), and it showcases a dramatic change in his approach.

Singer Kate Bush, heavy metal band Iron Maiden, rock band Rage Against the Machine, rock group Soundgarden, R&B vocal group The Spinners and hip hop group A Tribe Called Quest are returning nominees. “These artists have created their own sounds that have impacted generations and influenced countless others that have followed in their footsteps,” said John Sykes, chairman of the Rock & Roll Hall of Fame Foundation. She did promise to earn the honor and has announced a forthcoming record with covers of rock classics entitled "Rock Star."
