Matriphagy is a concept album about how an overprotective mother pushes her son to the edge of insanity through psychological & physical abuse. Having spent two decades trapped inside a glorified prison, and after some failed rescue/escape attempts, the son, in a state of heavy delirium does the unforgivable to free himself from his mother's wicked hold.

Making Metal Disturbing Again
Emerging from Pennsylvania in 2018 and combining the percussive force of second-generation drummer Max Portnoy with the pure, war-torn fury of vocalist and YouTube sensation Justin Bonitz, nu-core quartet TALLAH are on a mission to revamp and modernise the much-loved sound of popular nu-metal sensations of the early 2000s.
Drawing influence from the musical influences of their youth (the likes of Slipknot, Korn and Linkin Park), Tallah fuse the razor-sharp precision of these acts with the raw edges of modern hardcore music displayed by current sensations Code Orange, Vein, Candy and Fire From The Gods.
The resulting explosion of chaos, controversy and metal innovation birthed the band’s first EP, ‘No One Should Read This’, which was recorded at Spin Studios (GOJIRA, LAMB OF GOD) in 2018. Following its release, Max received the Modern Drummer Award for “Best Up and Coming Drummer 2019” and the band performed at Boomtown Festival in the same year.
Tallah’s forthcoming album ‘Matriphagy’ expands upon the concept outlined in ‘No One Should Read This’, armed with a disturbingly graphic tale that is to be taken both literally and metaphorically. Set to a pleasurably harrowing backdrop of brutally heavy musicianship, ‘Matriphagy’ is an unapologetic love-letter to chaos, and the sickening twist of the macabre.
LYRICS
I’m a frog—I croak in a pond of blood
She’s still a part of me
I can feel those rust-licked fingers wriggling
This garden has been littered with pesticides
Red light—red light
I’m a poor boy!
Red light—red light
Is this heresy, heresy?
Must be heresy, heresy
The spots have the answers
They’re connected in gold, but I can’t even go outside
‘Cause I don’t have the code
She knocked twice—Hun, you gotta go…
Hun, you gotta go outside of this contraption
No more action, accidents—infractions
Doesn’t match up? Oh…
Hey, I thought it would be easy!
You better forget her…
She couldn’t die without reason
Go get an umbrella ‘cause it be raining hella’ treason
She’ deader than dead, but p-please don’t go
We lost the race—it’s benign
To walk the borderline of pain as the artist paints the dream
No safety belts tonight, for it’s time to start the show!
I’m running away from this quiet
These rotten parts stink better every day
Every single person has a story they’re not telling
La la lala la!
Guess it while you can…
‘Cause all the girls around my block are soon to lose their heads!
We lost the race—it’s benign
To walk the borderline of pain as the artist paints the dream
No safety belts tonight, for it’s time to start the show!
I’m running away from this quiet
They think I’m crazy?
We’ll prove them right, my friends
We’ll break their bones and cut their throats
-Shove them under the bed
You think I’m stupid?
Let’s show what’s in our head...
I’ll break your bones, cut your throat, shove you under my bed!
We lost the race—it’s benign
To walk the borderline of pain as the artist paints the dream
No safety belts tonight, for it’s time to start the show!
I’m running away from this quiet
Red light—red light
I’m a poor boy!
Red light—red light
This is heresy, heresy
Heresy, heresy
Red light—red light
I’d like to imagine it more as a sunrise in Paris,
But the rivers keep flowing with a red color
I suppose it’s just the way it is
