GOAT - Commune LP
$41.95
Second album from the colourful Scandinavian psychedelic rockers.
When Goat’s debut World Music came out in 2012 and immediately earned a pile of praise and attention. Interesting ideas, mixing Afrobeat and kosmische with voodoo-based costumes and stage show. Despite a few attention-stretching lulls in the album, their whole concept was just too well executed to dismiss. They proved themselves with a captivating live show with the amazing costumes, dancing and musicianship. Don’t care whether their claims to freakish cult spiritualism is bullshit or not, they work their asses off to create powerful experiences.
The second album remains committed to the hypnotic Afrobeat on acid theme, and while much of the sounds are familiar, it succeeds by improving on the first album in pretty much every way. The hooks are more substantial, the grooves are groovier, and it sounds harder and even more dangerous.
