Goat - World Music (Rough Trade Limited Edition) 'Goat

Tracks list

We are extremely excited to announce that World Music, the debut album by the
band Goat is to be released on Rocket Recordings on 20th August 2012.
For those who are unaware, Goat are a collective of musicians who hail from a
small and very remote village called Korpolombolo in deepest darkest Sweden.
Legend has it that for centuries, the inhabitants of the village of Korpolombolo
were dedicated to the worship and practices of Voodoo. This strange and
seemingly unlikely activity was apparently introduced into the area after a
travelling witch doctor and a handful of her disciples were led to Korpolombolo
by following a cipher hidden within their most sacred of ancient scriptures.
The reason it led them there is unknown, but their Voodoo influence quickly took
hold over the whole village and so they made it their home - there, they were
able to practice their craft unnoticed and unbothered for several centuries.
This was until their non-Christian ways were discovered by the Church
and they were burned out by the crusaders, the survivors cursing the village
over their shoulders as they fled.
To this day, the now picturesque village of Korpolombolo is still haunted by
this Voodoo curse; the power of the curse can be felt throughout the grooves of
this Goat record.
The nine track album follows the underground success of the now sought after
7” Goatman, which is also included in this selection. The band takes in
many influences, from the Afro groove that is central to the album, through to
head nodding psych, post-punk, turkish rock, kraut repetition and astral folk.
