The new Matador album from Love Of Diagrams "Mosaic" is released on 9 April, preceded by a lavishly packaged self-titled EP out on 5 March. The Australian trio have been making waves since 2001 and are set to break internationally with their new album, which perfectly captures the urgency of their stripped-down guitar-bass-drums racket and call-and-response vocals.
Love of Diagrams join and draw from the long tradition of bands that stripped the rock band back to its essentials and made it sound like a revelation, whether classic early 80’s music like PiL and early B-52s, seminal Flying Nun bands The Clean and Bailterspace, or guitar innovators like The Jesus and Mary Chain and early My Bloody Valentine.
"... these songs are... pure shards of beauty...
This EP is essential - no two ways about it"
