About Me


GODHEADSCOPE is Matt Rosin (a.k.a. M.KOLOPHONIUM).
I am a composer, singer and instrumentalist. You may know me as a long-time contributor to Dead Raven Choir, or from my other musical project, Cindervoice.
GODHEADSCOPE fuses ambient, noise and chamber music into a new whole, and joins drone with songcraft. GODHEADSCOPE’s debut CD, A CITY OUT OF SIGHT, was released by God is Myth Records on June 21, 2007.
A split album with Italian dark acoustic project Stroszek is currently in production. Recording for the next GODHEADSCOPE full-length CD will commence in late May 2008.
