Matt Maddox released his sophomore album “Righteous Fury” today, 25th February 2014.

Out on Red Phone Records / Seven 13 Music, it is available in physical CD & digital format worldwide : UK, Europe, USA, Canada, Australia, Japan. Just do a quick search on the internet and you’ll find whichever one suits you best. Couple examples would be the CD at UGHH.com HERE and you can buy digitally via iTunes HERE but there are many more in every territory.

It would also be an idea to follow the labels on twitter @RedPhoneRecords and @Seven13Music as they will regularly highlight the various stores in different territories who are selling, and of course you can always send them a message about any particular country – they’ll be sure to let you know!!

There has been a steady build up of international media coverage on this release in the past few weeks with much more to come. Latest is by the UK’s online Bearded Magazine via their “Introductory” series. Check it out HERE

There are a few Youtube channels set up as review platforms for hip hop & rap albums, some providing more detailed coverage than others. The Underground Vault based in Canada is one which does go more in depth with their reviews, having clearly taken their time to listen through an album on more than one occasion and then provide a very well explained formed opinion, usually lasting 10 – 15 minutes

Such a review was published last night for the new Matt Maddox album “Righteous Fury” which releases tomorrow, 25th February on Red Phone Records / Seven 13 Music.

RighteousFury-SoundparlorReview

Following on from their recent interview with the Kansas based MC, American online music magazine Soundparlor reviewed his sophomore album “Righteous Fury” which releases 25th February on Red Phone Records / Seven 13 Music

Drawing from his origins in Long Beach southern California, the album reflects his musical influences in terms of classic hip hop with a mix of the more raucous approach of a Rage Against the Machine. The review picks up on his own substantial contribution to the album and the mindset behind it:

“It’s a deep collection–19 songs–yet comes in at just around an hour, meaning Maddox favors quick hits rather than extended jams. And this preference suits his heavyweight, aggressive lyrical flow.” while acknowledging the production and features from artists such as Tragedy Khadafi, Reef the Lost Cauze, King Magnetic, Nemesis, Sicknature of the Snowgoons, C Lance of Jedi Mind Tricks, the UK’s Edd Bundy and many more, including the turntablism of DJ TMB

Read the whole review HERE

Feb 20th- Allentown, PA Pitchers Lounge

Feb 23rd- Atlantic City, NJ Gran Fromage
