ustin's Shearwater sign to Matador and debut with a completely refurbished edition of their critically acclaimed - and frankly magnificent - 2006 album, "Palo Santo".

The band have re-recorded 5 of the 11 tracks on the album, which in itself makes this a new version of the record; in addition there is new cover art.

More important is the music - a soaring, vast multi-instrumental song-cycle. Jonathan Meiburg's vocals and songwriting recall bands as diverse as Roxy Music / Bryan Ferry and late Talk Talk. But this is unabashedly rock music, anchored by Thor Harris' mighty Bonhamesque drums.

"Almost impossibly majestic and beautiful" - Stephen Thompson, NPR

"One of the year's best indie rock albums... These 11 flickering - and hummable - songs tell a desperate but not quite decipherable story." - Kelefa Sanneh, New York Times
