DESCRIPTION
A sense of space permeates every second of Matador’s thirty-nine minutes. From the astral
gorgeousness of ‘The Girl Who Fell To Earth’ to the dream-like cadences of ‘Oscillate’, it’s the sound
of a songwriter melting musical boundaries like snow; merging elements of Neu!, Disney musicals,
Swedish psychedelicists Goat, Gyorgy Ligeti and Eno in a glacial soundscape as ambitious as it is
beautiful. The result is an album in the classic sense. Matador is the sound of one of Britain’s greatest
songwriters facing the future with a flourish.
Gaz Coombes’ second solo album – Matador – is due for release on January 26th 2015. The self–
produced follow up to 2012’s Here Come The Bombs was recorded in Gaz’s home studio and
Courtyard Studios in Oxfordshire. Everything on the record was played by Gaz (except drums on four
tracks by Loz Colbert, synths on ‘Buffalo’ by Charly Coombes; backing vocals across the record come
from Beverlei Brown and Faith Simpson). The album features the 2013 single ‘Buffalo’.
