60 Minutes or less - Episode 69 - Mat Haigh (Wot Gorilla?)

Welcome to ’60 Minutes or less’ - a podcast from Birthday Cake For Breakfast - where for episode 69 it’s a trip down memory lane, featuring an interview with Mat Haigh of Halifax math-rock outfit Wot Gorilla?!

Formed in 2009 in Sowerby Bridge, Wot Gorilla? ain’t lying when they say they’ve carved out their own corner of the UK’s math and post-hardcore scene. Nearly 20 years in the game, the line-up has shifted over the years, as they’ve shared stages with all sorts, from Rolo Tomassi to The Get Up Kids.

Having interviewed Mat many times over the past decade plus, we reconnected at the start of 2026 ahead of the release of the latest Wot Gorilla? album, ‘Stay Home’, out that very same month via Drongo Records. With the record coming out just shy of 10 years on from the release of their last EP, ‘Angel Numbers’, we had a lot to talk about!

Over Zoom, we spoke of life at home in Halifax, Turnstile rumours, the joys of social media, playing music as an older person and almost two decades of Wot Gorilla?
