Matmos

Matmos are a weird electronic band originally from San Francisco, now residing in Baltimore. The two guys in the band are a couple and one is even a professor at Johns Hopkins University.

I first heard them on the Matador At Fifteen compliation. I thought it was a fantastic simple song. I have yet to find a Matmos song I really adore, aside from the song "For the Trees".

I found out today there's an alternate version that's more laid back and fudges around a bit more than the original version. I don't like it as much, but I think it's a good listen.

"For the Trees"

"For the Trees" (Return)

They're playing here June 11 at the Meta Gallery (124 Ossington)!
