Description
"To a casual listener San Francisco's avant garde duo Matmos might be criticized as just another "way out" band climaxing off of natural occurring sounds. There is a somewhat justified concern -- if you're making music with a deep fat fryer you might have missed the class on what makes music fun to listen to. Matmos often incorporates the popular music structures we have become accustomed to (and spend money downloading), with sounds that we experience on a day-to-day basis; a sort of conceptual juggling act that has created a fresh cannon for future musicians and artists to base their own work off of."
