Album Details

New York Times best-selling author and acclaimed chef Matty Matheson has announced a special edition vinyl release of his celebrated debut cookbook. Set for release via Roadrunner Records, “A Cookbook” special edition vinyl marks the first-ever release of a cookbook on vinyl and finds Matty, a lover of Metal and Hardcore music, realizing a lifelong dream.

“Growing up, listening to all the bands on Roadrunner; Madball, Machine Head, Type O Negative, Sepultura and so on, they became the foundation of my music DNA,” notes Matty. “I get the honor of being on that same label. To release this album is more than a dream come true, this is for every kid that can’t play an instrument or scream into microphone but loves the fuck out of records; this is for all of us!”

“A Cookbook” features 12 recipes (and the stories behind them) from Matty’s best-selling cookbook with narration by the chef himself spread across two beautiful “bone” colored LPs. The vinyl edition includes all new artwork as well as a 40-page newsprint zine featuring the recipes / ingredients of each dish along with a song pairing from the Roadrunner catalog selected by Matty.
