New striking strokes

21 October 2023

Band: THE MATINEE
Who: Americana group from
Vancouver, Canada.

Single: CUT TO PIECES
Track from their new, 4th album Change Of Scene. Stream below.

TUTV: Expect glowing Americana the Canadian way. Heartland rock
legend John Mellencamp popped up immediately on my mind’s stereo.

Cut To Pieces has a stirring vibrancy, both groovy and moody, with menacing
vocals, a Neil Young-like six-string solo and a sticking chorus. And lyrically, this
poignant piece cuts like a Swiss knife. Intimidatory emotions, Midwest resonance,
sassy score.

Everybody put your hands up
Look around and show me what you’re made of
Ain’t nobody gonna save us
Keep your eyes upon the prize

Everybody knows it
You’ve got to roll with it
There’s no way we’re going down without a fight
Everybody knows
You’re sinking like a stone
I’ll give you one more chance before I
Cut you to pieces

Everybody it’s time to wise up
Make up your mind
And hit ‘em with your best shot
Looking for answers, looking for trouble
It’s a real fine line

Everybody knows it
You’ve got to roll with it
There’s no way we’re going down without a fight
Everybody knows
You’re sinking like a stone
I’ll give you one more chance before I
Cut you to pieces
