Matthew Schultz (born June 27, 1966, Enid, Oklahoma, United States) is an American musician. He is best known as the creator of the Anti Tank Guitar or A.T.G., used primarily during his work with Lab Report and Pigface, as well as for scoring music for director, Bernard Rose.

History

In 1990, Matthew Schultz and Eric Pounder founded the experimental, dark ambient, improvisational, music project Lab Report and were signed to Invisible Records.[1] Schultz was the creator of the Anti Tank Guitar or A.T.G.[2] Schultz used this instrument on the first four Lab Report albums as well as on the first three Pigface albums. Schultz went on as the head of Lab Report and released four more albums with his own record label, Gein.[3] The music style of these projects broadened and became increasingly more multi-media. Schultz went solo and released seven more albums under his own name. He also composed musical scores for Hollywood horror director, Bernard Rose. The movies include Ivans Xtc and Snuff-Movie.[4] The forward of the two received a 4 star rating by Roger Ebert [5]

Later works

In 2010 Schultz became the museum curator, collector and lead historian for The Exhibition for The History of The Division. This esoteric fraternal order is similar to the Freemasons and spans back centuries. Schultz wrote two CDs Mantras and Militant for the exhibition.[6]

Schultz works in shamanic and indigenous practices. He creates sacred geometric artwork and mandalas. Now, he utilizes the A.T.G. to generate chakra healing frequencies and binaural beat mediations. In 2012 he published a book and corresponding CD titled Mandalas and runs events and exhibitions based on the sacred geometry.[7] He was the keynote speaker at the Buckminster Fuller: Exploring the Sacred Geometry of Nature art show.[8]

Most recently, Schultz has written a book entitled The Dark and the Light - Trauma, Addiction, Shamanism, Ayahuasca. [9] This book not only seeks to educate the skeptic about the mystical but also offers words of warning for those seeking out indigenous and sacred practices.[10]
