I would love to go to the psych fest. Too bad. Have fun to all of those going. I saw Goat and Holy Wave in Philly last wednesday. Both bands were really good. I had to resist the temptation of yelling "bring out the gimp" during the Goat set. I wish I hadn't.
Well sure enough, in a case of Soul Strut come to life...I watched Goat perform last night with Guzzo.
Best performance of the whole weekend by far. Clinic was pretty amazing too. Sadly Os Mutantes practically got rained out but managed to put together a solid 25 minute set.
I got to admit it, I became an instant fan, after Harv's recommendation and there I was watching the group perform their spastic gnome dance moves right alongside the dude. Good times
but i got to say i haven't been this excited about a new band since Dungen. i don't do new bands. harv, i vaguely knew of these folks before your recommendation but never really soaked it in. i think i played let it bleed 14 times yesterday thanks to you.

My top five sets in order
1. Goat
2. Boris
3. Suuns
4. Clinic
5. Holy drug couple
I was only there Sunday, but heard from a friend that Boris really was something to see/hear.
Wanted to check out Clinic but ran out of gas by then.
Kinda pissed that I had to go piss in the middle of Goat's set.
Girlfriend dragged me to the front of the stage for King Kahn & BBQ Show (I had never even heard of them before)...and that wound up being as much fun as Goat was later.
Colorado River access FTW.

The impenetrable Swedish collective Goat became a lot better known in the gap between when PopGun Booking announced their U.S. debut at Glasslands and when the show finally happened ??? by then at a sold-out Music Hall of Williamsburg. Their first proper release World Music is exactly that ??? European psych-rock mated to the sounds of the Western Sahara. Shocking Blue meets Group Doueh. Made up of a rotating cast of villagers from the Swedish town of Korpilombolo who have been playing together for several decades (or so the story goes), the current players in Goat would seem to manage the rare feat of being a holy trifecta of mysterious, entertaining and authentic. Even if the Swedish psych rock tag is the easiest, Goat is hardly mystical stoner music, with a heavy, danceable backbeat. Their stage presence is geared to that, as well as maintaining their mystique. All of the players appear in masks and tribal costumes, and two dancer/singers perform up front. The result is a swirling, colorful fantasia of sound and positive rock and roll unlike anything else I???ve seen. Even if the band???s shadowy origins turn out to be less fanciful than they originally appear, this will still be a band to have on your list for the festival circuit this summer and beyond.
I recorded this set with MBHO KA200N cardiod microphones and a custom made analog preamp for a warm, natural sound. The result is excellent. Enjoy!
