Comment:
Matto Grosso is a collective from Santiago De Compostela, Spain whose
13-notch issue is a powerful blend of hardcore, noise rock, and
post-punk. Some lyrics are in Spanish, some in English. By listening
to these tracks one can perceive a certain sort of buildup within the
quartet`s music – it frequently starts off in technical way, even
mathematical sort of relations between instruments can be found out
from there. However, many tracks will finally burst into noise
torrents with apocalyptic echoes and primal bluesy energy of rock and
roll. Yeah, it is a sophisticated and straightforward rock music
example at the same time. It makes difference, it makes sense due to
the combo's wise planning and impressive energy behind it. At times
one can perceive similarities with the likes of Sonic Youth, and The
Fall (more remarkably, at Positive). Stunning.
