A June 23rd release date has been set for GOATWHORE’s new album “Vengeful Ascension” has been confirmed via Amazon. A first single from the release will reportedly land online later this week with more details to come. Recording sessions for the effort took place at at Earth Analog Studio in Tolono, IL with their soundman Jarrett Pritchard behind the boards.
Goatwhore rears its menacing head from the swamplands of New Orleans, Louisiana — a city rife with urban tales of voodoo curses, witchcraft and hauntings by souls of the damned. Spawned by former Acid Bath/Crowbar guitarist Sammy Duet in 1997, their winding legacy follows a dramatic, at times traumatic, sequence of personnel changes, fatal injuries, paranormal activity, natural disasters, and a collection of other misadventures large and small. They say what doesn’t kill you… whether driven by an unwavering commitment to their craft, pure insanity, the divine powers of Satan or perhaps a combination of the three, Goatwhore forever perseveres, inadvertently establishing themselves as one the hardest working, consistently punishing live bands of the 21st century and a true institution of heavy music.
The Goatwhore journey commenced with the primitive rumblings of the “Serenades To The Tides Of Blood” demo and subsequent “Eclipse Of Ages Into Black” debut. Then a five-piece comprised of Duet, Soilent Green vocalist Ben Falgoust, guitarist Ben Stout, bassist Patrick Bruders and drummer Zak Nolan, the band’s stanch DIY work ethic, relentless tour schedule and the battering, fuck-all approach of songs like “Invert The Virgin” and “Desolate Path To Apocalyptic Ruin” helped spawn a maniacal cult following. By 2003, Goatwhore had harvested a legion of disciples possessed by the band’s unrepentant Celtic Frostian rhythms and corrosive black death bayou swagger.
