The four-parts Canadian, one-part Arkansan quintet's sophomore effort boasts more soon-to-be-staples than any other Band studio recording, what with the likes of the Joan Baez hit 'The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down', 'Across the Great Divide', and 'Up on Cripple Creek' standing out among the dozen uniformly memorable tracks. Lesser-known group originals such as the achingly lovely 'Whispering Pines' and the cryptic 'Unfaithful Servant', however, play crucial roles in giving this 1969 classic it's unique flavour. Album Tracks 1. Across the Great Divide 2. Rag Mama Rag 3. The Night They Drove Old Dixie Down 4. When You Awake 5. Up on Cripple Creek 6. Whispering Pines 7. Jemima Surrender 8. Rockin' Chair 9. Look Out Cleveland 10. Jawbone 11. The Unfaithful Servant 12. King Harvest (Has Surely Come)

Vinyl LP pressing. Progressing from their angst-fuelled self-titled debut (2018), to the escapist world of sophomore LP On All Fours (2021), the South London trio, consisting of Rosy Bones, Lottie Pendlebury and Holly Mullineaux, enter their most self-assured era in 2024, with third album Below The Waste. Co-produced by the band & John Spud Murphy (Lankum/black midi), the album takes the band's distinctive sound to new extremes, as they delve fearlessly into expansive noise-rock, delicate folk and synth-driven pop. -Co-produced alongside John 'Spud' Murphy (black midi's Cavalcade and more recently Lankum's Mercury-nominated False Lankum) -Instrumentation was tracked mostly over a 10 day stint in Ireland at Hellfire Studios -Additional strings (Reuben Kyriakides and Nic Pendlebury), woodwind instruments (Alex McKenzie) and vocals (including a choir made up of family and friends) were added to this framework at a number of locations, from a barn in Essex to Goat Girl's own studio in South London Album Tracks 1. Reprise 2. Ride Around 3. Words Fell Out 4. Play It Down 5. TCNC 6. Where's Ur <3 7. Prelude 8. Tonight 9. Motorway 10. S.M.O.G 11. Take It Away 12. Pretty Faces 13. Perhaps 14. Jump Sludge 15.
