News : New single and competition from The Matador coming soon

By on July 4, 2014

The gap between 2011’s Descent into the Maelstrom and this new material has been a painfully long one, but the Gold Coast’s The Matador are finally set to release a new album, and the first single is just around the corner.

“The first single, “Destroyer”, is the perfect blend of aggression and melody that has become a signature sound for the band.”

The single will be available for purchase on Bandcamp from 9am AEST on Sunday July 6th, accompanied by an introspective film clip shot and directed by Greg D. Henderson.

To coincide with the release of the Destroyer single, the band are giving one lucky listener the chance to win a custom Destroyer guitar/bass cabinet designed and built by guitarist Ryan Creighton. Everyone who purchases the Destroyer single from The Matador’s Bandcamp page between July 6th and August 5th 2014 will go into the running to win the 2×10” speaker cabinet, which is loaded with Eminence speakers and is rated at 150watts @ 16ohms.

‘I am really excited to be launching my own range of custom guitar and bass cabinets, pedal boards and amps, and I thought what better way to launch them n give one away! So buy Destroyer for $2 to be in the running to score a great sounding cab!’.” – Ryan
