Anstalt Records, new, renewing, refreshing. Milking The Goatmachine too. Long live the Goats!

This combo started last year in Go(a)teborg, formed by Goatfreed and Goatleeb Udder, with just one goal: to create Goat Grind in its most dominating essence.
Seems like fun, and believe me: the average quality is more than acceptable. The moshing tracks, with a total duration of 25:39 minutes, bring goat-horned Grind-madness with lots of variation (indeed!) and a wonderful punkish Goat You!-attitude. Sometimes a subtle trespassing across the border with goatly Blast / Death Metal (especially caused by the grunts, some technical riffs and a few sharp guitar solos) is a goatish fact, bringing terror and horror within the worlds of every single goat. No pig squeals but deep grunts and a few screams, noisy and psycho-grinding guitar riffs, monstrous bass guitars, machine gun drum patters, it’s a goatic fact.

Humour is extremely important in both music and lyrics – please be so kind to undergo titles as The Last Unigoat, Surf Goataragua, or Goats Got Ni Clits – it makes my pubis hairs curl, it makes my goat’s milk turn sour…

For fans of our sweet Horned One… Go go goat!
