Praise for Matador:

“Matador’s sound textures are from a wide range of sources: gospel, a touch of Neu!… A trace of the Plastic Ono Band… Thrillingly on the edge of hysteria” The Guardian 4*

“Ambitious and affecting, Matador may well be Coombes’s finest work to date” Evening Standard 4*

“By the end, it feels like a journey through one man’s rawest and real emotions… that likeable Supergrass scamp is shedding his youthful skin to emerge as a serious and fascinating artist”
Mojo 5*

“Inventive throughout”
The Times

“He’s made his masterpiece”
Q 4*
