“The guitarist explains the joy of reconnecting with our 2022 Producer of the Year Andrew Watt, as well as how recording like they did in the earliest days of the group helped Dark Matter come together much quicker than 2022’s Gigaton. Dialing in on how he approached his guitar work for the new material, Gossard talks about how he carved out space for himself with Watt and touring guitarist Josh Klinghoffer in the studio mix. He also reveals that The Cure and U2 served as big influences for the album, and with U2 in mind, he explains why he doesn’t want Pearl Jam to play The Sphere.”

    Gigaton was 2020, not 2022. I have noticed so little fact checking by media these days.

    To be fair, that’s a typo in the description of the podcast. The episode itself is accurate and very good.
