Background notes
Archive material and source history
Matoe formed in Seattle with Matthew Leonard on vocals, Brian Styler on guitar, and Kevin Thompson on drums. Their debut album 'Words Like These' came out in 2004 and included the song 'Abandon,' which became their most recognizable track.
That song 'Abandon' had a particular resonance with listeners, with its direct lyrics about loss and Leonard's vocal delivery. It appeared alongside other early songs like 'Again' and 'All-Night Diner' on that first record.
They put out several more albums after that, including 'All My Friends Are Ghosts' in 2007 and 'Nothing Lasts Forever' in 2010. Their sound shifted over those releases, moving from a more direct approach toward something more atmospheric.
