I've never heard any Matt Cam performances that just knock my socks
off, but on Bin I've noticed that some of his stuff sounds
suspiciously like something Jack might play. Not *totally* of course
(Matt lacks the rolling effect that Jack so brilliantly displayed) but
some of his more lumbering beats do remind me of Jack. Just a
thought.

Ok, I dont hate matt at all. Personally I think he is a great drummer and Love
his stuff with soundgarden. It has taken me a while to adjust from Jack to
matt. To me there are certain things that matt cant play and that jack can.
Hell yes I could tell if matt was playing if know one told me. His playing is
so obvious. As for production goes after listening to all the albums Brenden
mixed, and then going to blake, there is a major differance in the knob
twisting and the direction the songs went in. It's nice that they went to
someone else for a change.
