About this product
Goat's 2014 psychedelic-rock classic gets a new pressing on jade-blue vinyl, limited to 1,000 copies!There is no direct association between mysterious Swedish psychedelicists GOAT and Argentinian master of magical realism, Jorge Luis Borges. Yet their mission appears to be the same. Borges generated his ideas from historical curiosities across the globe-knife duels on the South American plains, Middle Eastern heresiarchs, Chinese pirates-and twisted them into fictions that blurred the lines between footnotes and outright fantasy. GOAT's sound is the sonic embodiment of this principle, working heavy psych-rock, Nigerian afrobeat, German krautrock, Anatolian funk, and a host of other micro-niches into a hallucinatory celebration of rock's diverse manifestations. Despite the success of GOAT's critically-acclaimed 2012 debut, World Music, the individual identities involved remain shrouded in mystery GOAT performs in masks, and spokespersons maintain that the group is simply an ongoing multi-generational collective of musicians from the isolated, Swedish locality of Korpilombolo, a junction of native Sami people, Scandinavian settlers, and the rare wayfaring outsiders. Beyond that, GOAT divulges very little. It's as if GOAT are taking cues from Borges' short story InchTlön, Uqbar, Orbis Tertius,Inch wherein a clandestine enclave of intellectuals attempt to create a new reality by inserting articles on a fictitious, puzzling state into modern encyclopedias. Borges' secret society wanted their heretical ideologies to infiltrate common thought through an invented past; GOAT wants to revitalize the communal experience of rock music by creating an alternate origin story.Ultimately, it is GOAT's music that speaks the most about them, and on Commune GOAT deliver a heavy dose of acidic grooves, hypnotic incantations, and serpentine guitar lines, building on the much-lauded sound

Faster Than I Can Take is Carlyn Bezic's sophomore album as Jane Inc., a solo project forged after years of building her bona fides in the Toronto music scene with groups like U.S. Girls, Darlene Shrugg and acclaimed dance-pop duo Ice Cream.Pitchfork called Jane Inc's first album, 2020's Number One, Inchdazzling... [Bezic] proves herself a musical Swiss Army knife, capable of anything and reveling in her multiplicity.Inch On Faster Than I Can Take, she uses all the tools at her disposal - a Prince-like ability to shred harmonic guitar riffs over deep, danceable grooves, an eagerness to experiment with form, and lyricism that seamlessly links the personal and the political - to focus the multifaceted energy of Number One into something completely singular. A disco-inflected, danceable meditation on the permeable boundaries between our interior and exterior worlds, Faster Than I Can Take is an album that you can listen to at a party or alone in your apartment - but no matter where you listen, it will make you dance.01.

Bawlers, on the surface, is every bit as soothing as Brawlers is abrasive. But for all the gentle piano and brass embellishments, the mood is far from serene, inhabiting the bittersweet, sentimental borderline between a bender and hangover. Given that this sound goes back to Waits' earliest days, the timeframe is wider here than elsewhere in the set, yet it holds together with a late-night woozy consistency while veering from AM-radio jazz (InchYou Can Never Hold Back SpringInch) to folk (InchWidow's GroveInch), and intimate (InchWorld Keeps TurningInch) to show-stoppingly anthemic (InchNever Let GoInch, InchDown There By the TrainInch). More than any other disc, Bawlers is proof that Waits can pull these kind of nightclub-act songs out of his derby hat at will, able to channel the archetypal piano-man character with minimal effort.
