MATMOS, "THE WEST"
For their thirdfull-length release, Matmos has indeed ventured down the road to thewestern lands - with guitar and western themed songs done through theeyes of an experimental electronic band who by now has their shittogether.
For their thirdfull-length release, Matmos has indeed ventured down the road to thewestern lands - with guitar and western themed songs done through theeyes of an experimental electronic band who by now has their shittogether. I'm really enjoying the looped acoustic guitars, usage ofpedal steel guitar, twangy guitar as well shuffled drum beats andstringed instruments combined with electronic rhythms and beats. It'streated, reprocessed yet it doesn't stray from the all around'Spaghetti Western' flavor of the record. Five tracks on this disctotal about 45 minutes and were recorded in various places aroundfriends houses in California as well as M'sDavid Pajo's place in Kentucky. Coupled with cover artwork suggestiveof old westerns and inside photos of modern cowboys, this is a great CDto find.
