GOAT - WORLD MUSIC (2012)

Raramente riesco ad esaltarmi per un disco nuovo. Beh, è questo il caso. 

I Goat sono un collettivo che mischia un sacco di generi: funk, psychedelia, space rock, krautrock, prog, musica tribale, musica nordica etc etc. Attorno alla band c'è poi un fitto alone di mistero: indossano inquietanti maschere bianche e affermano di essere un gruppo nato secoli fa, i cui membri sono col tempo cambiati con il susseguirsi delle generazioni. Se poi aggiungiamo che vengono da un remotissimo villaggio svedese di nome Korpolombolo, "i cui abitanti praticano il vodoo da secoli" la bomba è assicurata.

Goat are a collective 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 the Goat records.

La band minaccia chiunque pubblichi  i link per scaricare a scrocco l'album di infestare lo stereo del colpevole con lo spirito di Gigi D'Alessio, per cui ascoltatevi l'album qui, se vi piace compratevelo qui e, se vi piace Gigi D'Alessio,  scaricatevelo per i fatti vostri, ma lontano dal mio stereo.
