Mathew J Hall Full Weight Vinyl LP 2025
- Headspace (Sunrise)
- 5:32
- Weight of Love
- Four Letter Words
- Lady Luck
- Creature Of Comfort
In a world where vulnerability is often hidden behind noise, Sheffield singer-songwriter Mathew J Hall dials back the static with 'Full Weight', a driving, emotionally charged EP that burns with urgency. Mathew takes inspiration from the weirdness of Aldous Harding and Amen Dunes while embracing the songcraft of greats like Neil Young and Jeff Buckley. Due for release on 3rd October 2025 via Tip Top Recordings (Mandrake Handshake, Japanese Television, Pearl & The Oysters), EP 'Full Weight' is a six track offering of emotionally driven, lyrically agile, eccentrically produced indie-rock. Released on limited edition (300) heavyweight white coloured vinyl.
Mathew's journey began with a childhood guitar and quietly grew into a private archive of hundreds of songs, never meant for anyone but himself. After stints with local outfits The Velotones and Violet May, he broke away to carve out his own space, one where every note and word belonged to him. Stepping into the studio with friends and trusted collaborators, he found the freedom and confidence to let the world in. The result is 'Full Weight', a bold new chapter in Mathew's musical story.
'5:32' is the natural way to introduce Mathew's gloriously unique voice and songwriting, evoking Sheffield's musical royalty such as Richard Hawley. As the single artwork depicts, '5:32' was conceived by Mathew "in bed, during COVID, eating cereal and taking my meds. As Thom Yorke once said, 'no one is really a solo artist'". The surging, cathartic anthem 'Weight Of Love' is about a simple case of unrequited love. Mathew says, "In my case, it's a story of my dad leaving. The cover artwork is of me and my brother around the age he left". Further tracks like 'Lady Luck' lean into a slow-burning groove of shimmer and snarl, while the fully exposed 'Creature Of Comfort' is built on skeletal instrumentation.
'Full Weight' captures the duality of refusing to choose between fragility and force. It's music that aches, bleeds, and ultimately triumphs: a testament to the strength in showing your cracks.
