Even though Goat is only the latest incarnation of an ancient mystical tradition originating from the small village of Korpilombolo, they are the first to release their music on record. As fantastic as that is, their live performances remain unbeatable. Dressed in occult, pagan costumes and masks, the secret collective leads a high-energy ritual designed to expand the minds of the audience—an endeavor that never fails. On their latest self-titled album, the band is back in full force with hypnotic rhythms, brilliant riffs, and enchanting chants. This summer, Goat will bring their devilishly mesmerizing live machine to Way Out West for a performance in Slottsskogen on Saturday, August 9.
