Goatsmegma - Goat Separatist Movement

GOATSMEGMA - Goat Separatist Movement (GODZ OV WAR - CD 2022)

There's something utterly bizarre about bands like Goatsmegma. They have absolutely nothing new to offer, everything about them is typical and has been done to the most boring level already in this genre. Let's check, shall we? A name with the goat in it, check. Chains, gasmasks, balaclavas - they're here too, check. Nicknames like Commander of the Demonic Axe – they are here, checl. Oh, goats with machine guns and impaled nazarene scum - would you expect flowers on the artwork? Check. Music - it is following the path of Blasphemy, Revenge, Proclamation and many more... I'm even too lazy to mention more names, but yes - Goatsmegma music is also very, very typical and predictable. Check. This Estonian band doesn't even try to have at least one original aspect in their music. Someone would ask if there’s anyone who needs them at all? Well, here's what I think - Goatsmegma music is good enough to defend itself.  

First off, I am glad that the production on this album is not making the music sound like a terrible and unbearable wall of noise. You will be able to catch some great riffs there and the music has a good diversity - fast, violent music does dominate, but Goatsmegma includes many slower, more crushing parts too, for better and more interesting result. And it all is here waiting and ready to rape your ears with bloodthirsty perversity. And that’s the second thing, which makes “Goat Separatist Movement” a worthy record. While I am generally tired with this style of music, there are still some bands, which manage to convince me and I can listen to their albums with sadistic pleasure. Goatsmegma belongs to that category of bands. I think they are even better than Barbaric Horde, who’re sort of similar band from the Godz ov War catalogue. The ferocity of the music, pure savagery and blasphemy are what I like to here. If it’s unoriginal, well I can live with it. With songtitles such as “Drowning Into Goat Sperm”, “Sadistically Murdered by Goat Rebels” or “Goat Separatist Movement” you just know it ain’t gonna be a sweet lullaby. 

Verdict: 75/100
