Matthew Mast premieres heavy new single "Born Again"

Today, the promising heavy songwriter, Matthew Mast shared the latest single “Born Again” from his upcoming album Of All The Endings via a premiere with Post-Trash. One of the most pummeling tracks from Mast’s latest effort, the doom-laden “Born Again” bursts in with walls of melancholy guitars and synths, elevated further by the rise and fall of Mast’s haunting vocals and Alessandra Dean’s accompanying harmonies. "Born Again" peels away layers of self-doubt and gloom with monolithic rhythms in an effort to be remembered as something more. On Of All The Endings, due out October 23rd through V.A.S.P. Legacy, Mast delivers a towering and emotional collection of tracks that serve as a powerful reminder of the murkiness lying just beneath the surface of everyday life. Listen to “Born Again” here and pre-order a limited edition cassette of the album here.

Inspired by artists such as Leonard Cohen, Portishead, Sharon Van Etten, and Have A Nice Life, Matthew Mast creates sprawling, dreary landscapes for the modern age about burdened love and the paralyzing aches of anxiety. It's not all bleak though, the promising songwriter says, "A lot of these songs, specifically the lyrics were written in really beautiful places, during very happy moments in my life", and it shows as he incorporates plenty of beauty between the crushing weight of his music. Instead of withdrawing, on Of All The Endings, he finds comfort in presenting these strikingly familiar struggles. Enduring trials of self, Mast arrives with an expansive set of songs that filter his depths of hurt into catharsis and release. Darkness begets light.
