finally, the unrelenting terror that is the first ep from the very sinister goat's gloom is at last upon us and now available as a highly limited-edition 7" vinyl via the astounding divergent series. to the uninitiated, goat's gloom is the stunning collaboratory project between decorative stamp's very own babelfishh and dug yuck, alongside the almighty frkse. the murkiness of time makes it slowly become unclear as to when the project first arose, but if memory serves i believe the vocal recording sessions for the ep took place in the spring of 2010 at the seattle residence of dug yuck during the abortive 'galloping halfwits' tour, when james p honey and i were due to travel to the pacific northwest but had our plans torn asunder by the volcanic ash cloud which grounded all european flights for the better part of a week.
still, for my own part, i was also extremely honoured to be invited to guide the ep through the mastering stages and have thusly been heavily exposed to the desolate material contained therein. it is always a privilege for me to reveal that dug yuck and babelfishh are quite easily two of my favourite writers and vocalists, and how this collection of maddening compositions really does show them at the height of their most darkly-disturbing powers, channeling the most ominous of energies through the unrelentingly devastating musical turns of the hallowed frkse. might i strongly suggest then that you secure yourself a copy of this truly mind-altering release. it is very surely not something for the feint-hearted, but those of you bold enough or adept enough will surely revel in the murky depths of this fascinating collection of blackened materials.
keep safe
