'Yield' was completed in 1997 and released in 1998. In the spring of 1997, I had made a decision to stop taking medications that I had been taking daily since 1988.

I had wanted to play drums since the age of 9 when I saw a drum set in the window of a music store for the first time. We took lessons at a local music school and began playing together after about 6-9 months of lessons.

I finished the recordings I had started with Eleven. Matt Cameron joined for the rest of those sessions.

She made the decision that her existence had lost its meaning. And you cannot judge that.
