Zac Mather; Right: "It's Bastard Freezing Up Here, Just Take The Shot Already!"
As February 8th 2019 was officially Dydd Miwsig Cymru, or, Welsh Language Music Day for those of you requiring English...I thought that I'd go local for this next installment of My Wreckord Collection. Today we catch up with one Mr Zac Mather, drummer of Pontypridd-based alternative rockers CHROMA. The currently unsigned trio have been making a name for themselves in and around Wales' live music scene since their debut self-titled EP, and continue to come on leaps and bounds through their work with Horizons, even garnering accolades at the Cardiff Music Awards. Here, Zac gives us a quick run down of five albums that helped shaped him as a person and a musician today....

THE KILLERS - "HOT FUSS"

"I grew up with this album and besides the obvious "Mr Brightside" the whole album is a masterpiece. There's something so unique about Brandon Flowers that has always caught my attention and has inspired me several times and will continue to do so!"

BIFFY CLYRO - "ONLY REVOLUTIONS"

"I love Biffy Clyro's blend of noise/math/alt rock on this album! Riffs for days! This album from start to finish is another masterpiece, Biffy are one of my all time favorite bands. This album basically sound-tracked my teenage years!"

THE HOOSIERS - "THE TRICK TO LIFE"

"This was the first album I ever bought. There's a weird pleasure you get from listening to this album. It starts off quite happy but the further you get into the album the darker it gets!"

BRING ME THE HORIZON - "THAT'S THE SPIRIT"

"This had to end up on a list at some point! Following up another favorite of mine; "Sempiternal", this album took the band in a slightly newer direction. They changed their sound up a little during a point of my life where my life was also changing a little between the ages of 17-19. I will always have a place in my heart for this emo AF album!"

DON BROCO - "PRIORITIES"

"​I played this album to death and back. This album was on repeat when it came out for a solid few months before continuing to be played consistently from some of my playlists. Don Broco can do no wrong with their funk/riff rock. "You Got It Girl" being one of my favorites on this album due to the nature of the minimal track leading to the final bridge where the mix just explodes."
