Matt Wolejsza has recently released his album, The Beast I’m Meant to Be, which captures years of creative growth and emotional reflection. The Gaithersburg, Maryland musician blends heavy guitar-driven influences with touches of other styles, creating an album that feels both personal and varied.

Producer Tim Boate helped shape the recordings with layered arrangements and polished production, while executive producer Brian Feinstein contributed guidance on song structure and refinement. Inspired largely by Metallica’s aggressive riff work, Matt channels raw honesty into tracks exploring online toxicity, depression, and personal loss. Highlights include Stupidity Gone Viral, a sharp commentary on internet culture, and One More Hug, an emotional tribute to the artist’s late cat, Bonnie.
