Over the past year Londoner Matt Maltese has been crafting epic-sounding ballads inspired by his love of Leonard Cohen from his bedroom. Now, having signed a deal with Atlantic Records, the 20-year-old singer-songwriter is premiering his first single of 2017 on The FADER. "As The World Caves In" taps into the sense of despair felt by many following the outcome of the U.S. election and Britain's E.U. referendum in 2016 and adds a sense of melodrama and beauty. "I wanted to take an everyday thing like spending an evening watching TV with a lover and exaggerate it," Maltese tells The FADER via email. "It's a love song based around Theresa May and Donald Trump having one last night of romance together while they trigger atomic warfare. Hopefully it comes across romantic, sexy, but also sinister and stupid.” Listen to "As The World Caves In" above. Matt Maltese supports Hamilton Leithauser on his tour of the U.K. and Europe throughout March. Thumbnail image via Dan Kendall Simply put, “As the World Caves In” is a love song. It centers on a couple spending their last moments on earth in each other’s company while they watch the world come to an end. Speaking with The FADER, Maltese revealed that the song is centered on a couple (former British Prime Minister Theresa May and American President Donald Trump) spending their final “night of romance” with each other while triggering nuclear warheads that destroy the entire world. According to Maltese, he penned the song in 2016, shortly after May won the vote to renew the UK’s Trident nuclear weapon.

According to Maltese, the despair that swept across the globe in the aftermath of the 2016 US Presidential Election that saw Donald Trump become president as well as Britain’s 2016 referendum to leave the E.U. inspired him to pen the song.

There are conflicting reports online concerning his actual age. But Famous Birthdays, a site that specializes in relaying such information, states that he was born in 1990, thus making him 30 years old as of the writing of this post. And in trying to put his sound into words, note that Maltese has been compared to the likes of Leonard Cohen and Morrissey of The Smiths.

His big break came in 2015 with a track entitled “Even If It’s a Lie”, which also happens to be the earliest track in his Genius discography. That particular song was self-released, but its success ended up scoring the singer his first deal, which was with Café Bleu Records. And Matt scored an even bigger hit in 2017 with “As the World Caves In”, which stands as his most-successful song to date.
