now available on 180 gram vinyl with a free download code. every month for the last six months, matador records have been releasing a limited 7" by jay reatard. this collection features all six singles and is compiled in chronological order. jay reatard's 7"s have generated more and more attention with each release, but each one has been put out in a progressively more limited run, starting with 3,500 worldwide for single number 1 and ending with only 400 copies of single number 6. each release has differed from the last (be it on clear and coloured vinyl, a split 7" or a picture disc) and all have sold out instantly upon release. 'matador singles '08' not only caters for those who aren't so bothered about collecting and those who missed out on the 7"s the first time round - it is also an outstanding album in its own right. every song is a perfect snarling pop-punk gem, but the collection evolves interestingly (and erratically) from punk to pop. ....release date: 09/02/2009
