Goat share their second single, ‘Goatbrain’, to be taken from their self-titled album, due out the 11th October via Rocket Recordings. This follows from the first taste with single, ‘Ouroboros‘.
The Ouroboros – 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.
Hypnotic mish mash of the finest order. The sharmans of groove return with a mystical beast of looping guitars, unearthly chanting and primal rhythmic magic.
