R&b
All hail our psychedelic overlords…
30 · 07 · 2024
Goat have laid out plans for a new self-titled album.
The reclusive Swedish psychedelic group took time out, before returning with renewed creative vigour. Incoming release ‘Goat’ is their third album in three years – four if you include their score for The Gallows Pole – and it lands via Rocket Recordings on October 11th.
The self-titled LP features eight songs, with Goat set to complete a UK headline tour this Autumn – including a night at London’s Troxy venue on October 24th.
New single ‘Ouroboros’ is a breakbeat-driven return that has a faint baggy feel – imagine Happy Mondays’ immortal ‘Bummed’ left to turn translucent in the Scandinavian sun during a Midsummer ritual and you’d be close.
The title refers to the mythical image of a serpent eating its own tail, with Goat commenting:
“The cycle of rebirth means the refinement of the soul. An evolution in which we slowly find our direction. Our own rhythm.”
Tune in now.
