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!â€Â “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.
