GOAT GIRL - GOAT GIRL VINYL (LTD. ED. VIOLET GATEFOLD)

LIMITED EDITION VIOLET VINYL GATEFOLD

Release Date: 6th April 2018

The debut album from the South London indie female-foursome who are part of the same youthful scene as the band Shame, who also released their album this year. Goat Girl tell us tales from the grimier, dirtier London that exists and they pull no punches in doing so. Channelling the raw, energetic and quintessentially British sound of the likes of The Libertines, the band have created an album for the new age of British indie-rock! 

For Fans Of: Dream Wife, Shame, The Libertines, Hinds

"Across 19 tracks in just 40 minutes, Goat Girl’s self-titled debut creates a half-fantasy world out of a very dirty, ugly city reality. Goat Girl belong to a burgeoning, close-knit south London scene, born in venues like The Windmill in Brixton and including bands like Shame, Bat-Bike, Madonnatron, Horsey, Sorry, and many more. Goat Girl enlisted producer Dan Carey (The Kills, Bat For Lashes, Franz Ferdinand) to help them capture their vision, set a goal to write and record a piece of music in a day in effort to capture that raw first-creation moment, and chose to record to tape. It’s a very English album - sharp-eyed observations like The Kinks, louche rage like The Slits - but it’s also full of swampy, swaggering guitars and singer Lottie’s filthy drawl. Each member brings a diverse range of influences and contributions, ranging from krautrock to bossa nova, jazz to blues. They resist being boxed in to an indie, guitar-based genre, and focused intensely on the layers and textures of each song as well as the different contexts they could sit within. The result, Goat Girl, succeeds in conjuring a complete world all unto itself, and is arranged in segments - divided by improvised interludes - that offer glimpses of an even stranger parallel universe."
