Godspeed Mr. Hurley. One of the greatest great songwriters. I got this print when he played The Adelphi in Hull 20 years ago.

When the reviews started coming in I did not expect to be getting any Funkadelic comparisons! Delighted by it though - head over to @atthebarrier.bsky.social to see what they said. atthebarrier.com/2025/03/07/m...

"Even on first listen this album feels like a conversation with an old and loved friend. There’s a charm to it which makes you feel that Matt Edible and The Obtuse Angels will be something of a cult band loved by their fans." Fab review here from - check it out! thesoulofaclown.com/2025/03/06/m...

Chuffed to be on this playlist. Following two of our absolute favourites as well! The truly electric @snappedankles.bsky.social and our hometown heroes @smellybdrmm.bsky.social ! It's all about Hull baby!

Thanks to @jerichokeys for spinning Dog Dirt on his excellent @bbcintroducing show and the kind words. We don't mind if you do say "that song was Dog Dirt" if we're gonna make you say "that song was Better Than Oasis" then it's only fair we get some shade as well!

David Lynch played a huge part in how I learned to view art and the world. From the first glimpses of Fire Walk with Me, late night on the TV in the late 90s, I was confused, confounded and hooked. His work has influenced so much of what I do. He was a damn fine cup of coffee.

New single Dog Dirt is out on Friday (24th January)! Here's the awesome artwork by Alice Beasley - Pre-save at kycker.ffm.to/dogdirt

A bit of a comedown today following seeing two very different but equally emotional and inspirational shows. Firstly from Paul McCartney at the Manchester Enormobox on Sunday and then @bccamplight.bsky.social at the intimate and always wonderful The Adelphi Club in Hull last night.

Fun times playing Billy Bootleggers in Nottingham last night.

Nottingham! We're coming to play for you tomorrow. Billy Bootleggers - free entry.

No. I don't think you're going to find me pronouncing it like that.

It's Bandcamp Friday and we've got records! Order The Optometrist on Vinyl or CD today and we'll get it shipped to you before Christmas! mattedible.bandcamp.com/album/the-optometrist We figure we're not going to be troubling the charts so we might as well start sending these out straight away.
