│ The third full-length studio album from Goatsnake- :"Black Age │
│ Bluesö is an instant classic, with each one of the nine songs (11 │
│ on the 2xLp version) an anthem, and each of the four band members on │
│ top form. Everything is magnified, Pete Stahl's vocals have never │
│ sounded so soulfully deep, the rhythm section comprised of Greg │
│ Rogers on drums and new bass player Scott Renner are the driving │
│ force on each track, and Greg Anderson's riffs are heavier than ever │
│ before. │
│ │
│ Appearing on the album intro æto Another River To Cross' is acoustic │
│ guitar courtesy of David Pajo (Slint, Aerial M, Papa M), this track │
│ also contains previously released recordings from 'The River' by │
│ Goatsnake. Piano is played by Mathias Schneeberger and Petra Haden │
│ contributes violin and vocals. Another welcome addition to the │
│ album, across multiple tracks are brilliant soulful backing vocals │
│ by Dem Preacher's Daughters - Wendy Moten, Gale Mayes and Andrea │
│ Merrit. There inclusion on the proceedings evokes a reverent gospel │
│ choir aesthetic that intuitively accentuates the heavy darkness laid │
│ down by the band. │
│ │
│ Behind the controls is grammy award winning producer Nick │
│ Raskulinecz, who was responsible for the engineering and production │
│ of the last Goatsnake full-length album: Flower of Disease. Over the │
│ last 15+ years Nick has gone on to work with seminal artists such as │
│ Rush, Alice In Chains, Mastodon and Ghost. United again, he and the │
│ band are sure to serve a menacing cut of the time-honored, │
│ ultra-heavy rock they are infamous for. │
│ │
│ Black Age Blues is familiar but nothing here is a repetition of what │
│ we've heard before, as Goatsnake continue to refine the time-honored │
│ dark-bluesy doom-rock that they are infamous for, surpassing even │
│ the highest of expectations. │
