Pearl Jam released their new album, Dark Matter, on April 19, 2024. In an exclusive interview with Classic Rock in 2023, here quoted via Louder's article on January 5, 2024, Pearl Jam's guitarist Mike McCready elaborated on the sound of the album, stating:
"It’s a lot heavier than you’d expect. There’s the melody and energy of the first couple of records. Andrew pushed us to play as hard and melodic and thoughtful as we’ve done in a long time. I feel like Matt Cameron’s drumming has elements of what he did in Soundgarden. or better or worse, you’re gonna hear a lot more lead guitar from me-"
The guitarist continued:
"-, stuff I haven’t done in a long time. I went crazy, like with Chris Cornell and Temple Of The Dog on Reach Down [1991], all those years ago. I got to do it again. Usually the first or second takes are best. After that I start thinking about it and it doesn’t have the feel. But Andrew caught the lightning in a bottle, as they say."
He also talked about working with Andrew Watt, stating:
"I’m hoping it’s gonna come out next year [this interview took place in 2023]. We have a bunch of songs tracked. We worked with Andrew Watt, who’s a younger pop producer-type guy, but he’s really a rock guy at heart – I think we’re his favourite band."
The guitarist continued:
"When we were in the studio with him this past year, he really kicked our asses, got us focused and playing, song after song. It took a long time to make Gigaton, but this new one didn’t take long. Andrew was like: “You guys take forever to make records. Let’s do this, right now.”"
