If you mean the California Rhinoplasty EP, you should definitely pick it up
(it's been out for a few weeks now). The full 10 minute track "California
Rhinoplasty" along with 2 lovely mixes by Dr. Rockit and Surgery. It is
entirely composed of samples of surgery (how Matmos could wrangle their way
into viewing and sampling surgery is anyone's guess) along with some fancy
stylings on the nose flute. The extra track, a cover of Coil's "Disco
Hospital" is worth the price of the CD alone. I am fairly new to Matmos and
am already a fan.
I also just picked up Matmos' Quasi-Objects yesterday and was suitably
impressed. I was also surprised to hear just how much "Latex" sounds like
Coil's "Green Water" (off 1000 Lights in a Darkened Room). Same sound
source, or some sly sampling? Does anyone else notice the similarity?
(quite excited to be getting Cable Modem hookup Tuesday!)
