SWIRL VINYL

Goat 2024 Limited Edition YELLOW and BLACK
indies only SWIRL Vinyl. New and sealed – in stock
now, mails same day.
The Ouroborus - that is, the icon of the snake or
dragon eating its own tail - appears to some a
statement of the brutality of nature. To others of a
Gnostic disposition it symbolises the duality of the
divine and earthly in mankind. But most commonly,
it’s taken simply to mean the endless cycles of
death and rebirth that characterise life on this
planet. As such, it’s an image that looms large in the
world of Goat, the ever-mysterious and endlessly
revivifying collective whose latest album marks
another adventure above and beyond this particular
plane of reality.This may be a band that has named
albums both Requiem and Oh Death, yet this
eponymous salvo proves yet again that
transcendence and metamorphosis are their
watchwords. Goat sees this ever-unpredictable
outfit summoning rhythmically-driven rituals in
unmistakable, uplifting and scintillating style,
equally adept at ignitiing dancefloors and expanding
minds.
‘One More Death’ and ‘Goatbrain’ are spectacular
curtain-raisers, embodying a hedonistic spirit driven
by incisive funk and possessed by merciless
fuzz/wah-drenched guitar. Yet elsewhere, the band’s
love of hip hop is the fuel for the end-credits-epic
album closer ‘Ourobourus’ which marries infectious
chant to breathless Lalo Schifrin-style breakbeat
action. And which also means ultimately, like the
titular oldest allegorical symbol in alchemy, we’re
right back where we started. As Brad Dourif’s
character Hazel Moates intones in the 1979 movie
Wiseblood, “Where you come from is gone; where
you thought you were going weren’t never there.
And where you are ain’t no good unless you can get
away from it”; in Goat’s eternal now of renewal and
revelation, there’s never been a more potent means
of escape.
