While I was watching Matisyahu at Harmony By the Bay a couple of weeks ago, I got the following text from SCW's own Jacob Pierce: "Did Matisyahu shave and get into dubstep, or am I listening to Beats Antique?"

He still has the wall of trippy guitar sound, and the intense performance style. So mostly, he's still the Matthew Miller we've come to know, puzzle over, and sometimes even love.
