Comment: Coma Cinema is an one-man-project headed by Mat Cothran, a troubadour from South Carolina, USA. Cothran is penchant for writing a vast amplitude of different kind of songs which contain the elements of lofty Americana, intriguing lo-fi/DIY, catchy electronic-soaked psychedelia, and his music is not devoid of more root-related sound, mostly folk-drenched appearances. A bunch of trasures can be pulled out from this 16-track release (Blue Suicide, Business As Usual, Desolaton`s Plan, Eva Angelina). Cothran can be compared with such celebrated musicians and singer-songwriters as Warren Defever, Stephin Merritt, Jonathan Donaghue, Mark Oliver Everett, Mark Linkous, Sufjan Stevens, Dave Fridmann, and Bradford Cox. However, by listening to the abovementioned tracks the listener can admit that Cothran is a very talented musician and deserves much more to be appreciated (with other similar type of musicians like Dan Masquelier, and Derek Clegg, for instance).
