This week's video of Josh Preston's "Safety Feels The Exit" was recorded live @ The 5 Spot in East Nashville on June 1st, 2008. We here at MATM are in the process of editing a ton of new videos and our goal is to release a new video by a MATM artist once a week for the rest of the year. It's going to be a ton of work and a bunch of fun so definitely stay tuned.
It should come as no surprise that we love Sigur Ros. Below, click on the link to stream their new album Með suð í eyrum við spilum endalaust in its entirety. It is absolutely breathtaking.
So The Young Sophisticates are playing a killer gig tomorrow and we just had to remind you. If you have a pulse, a desire to see a spectacle beyond your imagination and love to chill outside in the bright sunshine and listen to amazing music then this is the show for you!
Western Carolina University has asked The Young Sophisticates to perform for the masses! So check it. The Summer Concert Series is on the lawn at the Hinds University Center, Western Carolina University, Cullowhee, NC. Which is right outside of Asheville folks! And it's FREE!
Go support these guys cause if you don't kittens might die and we will mail you pictures of them post-mortem. And no one really wants that.

This week's masterpiece comes from Me and the Machine troubadours The Young Sophisticates. It was recorded live at The Basement in Nashville when they opened for Tyler Ramsey of Band of Horses. There is so much energy coming from the stage during this performance it violates rules set forth on such matters by the FCC.
Without giving away any of the plot, here's a brief recap of what happens in the video:
-Dave's glasses fly off halfway through the tune cause he's rocking the f#ck out.
-In the last chorus, Brad screams like someone stepped on his nuts and it is one of the most magnificent sounds I've ever heard.
-On the last note of Cyrus' solo, he lifts his guitar in such a poetically triumphant manner, I nearly shed a tear during each viewing.
-Grace throws her hair about in time with the bowing of her violin and simultaneously makes every man that views this video unspeakably smitten.
Their new record is being finalized now and will be out in short order. Shhhh.
