Today, Finnish black metal institution Goats of Doom premiere a lyric video for the new track "Sokeus Johtaa Kansaa" at heavily trafficked web-portal NoCleanSinging.com. The track hails from the band's highly anticipated fourth album, Rukous, set for international release on December 7th via Primitive Reaction. Hear Goats of Doom's "Sokeus Johtaa Kansaa" in its entirety exclusively HERE.
Despite a somewhat misleading moniker, Goats of Doom are
100% black metal through and through, and one of the Finnish
underground's best-kept secrets. And yet, compared to the filthy
recesses of their native contemporaries, Goats of Doom specialize
in a sleek and alluringly melodic sort of black metal - no less
aggressive, but with the emphasis on mysticism and melody.
Goats of Doom was founded in 2008 by Scaregod and Inasnum. Three full-lengths eventually followed in 2012, 2015, and 2017 with this lineup; in this iteration, the band was more synth-based black metal, but not strictly "symphonic black metal" by definition. Now expanded to a trio, Goats of Doom show a new face on Rukous, where the mysterious atmosphere of old is shot through with more surging aggression and bewitching melody: in essence, a melodic blizzard, if you will. It's characteristically Finnish in its melancholy - melody can never be too saccharine, of course - but burns icy hot with a passion that makes its seven-song/42-minute runtime a nightsky treasure to behold. The theme of Rukous is suitably spirituality, and hereby do Goats of Doom offer myriad ways to worship the dark.
Rounded out by production that finds that perfect balance between grit and gleam, mystery and muscle, Goats of Doom's Rukous presents a unique face to the ever-vibrant Finnish black metal idiom.
