| |
| In a culture obsessed with content, saturation, and continual |
| exposure, itÆs rare to find artists who prefer to lurk outside of |
| the public eye. Thomas Pynchon is perhaps the most notable |
| contemporary recluseùa virtually faceless figure who occasionally |
| creeps out of hiding to offer up an elaborate novel steeped in |
| history and warped by imaginationùbut for crate diggers and guitar |
| mystics, SwedenÆs enigmatic GOAT may qualify as the greatest |
| modern pop-culture mystery. Who are these masked musicians? Are |
| they truly members of the Arctic community of Korpilombolo? Are |
| their songs part of their isolated communal heritage? Their third |
| studio album, Requiem, offers more questions than answers, but |
| much like any of PynchonÆs knotty yarns, the reward is not in the |
| untangling but in the journey through the labyrinth. |
| |
| Western exports may have dominated the consciousness of |
| international rock fans for the entirety of the 20th century, but |
| our increasing global awareness has unearthed a treasure trove of |
| transcendental grooves and spellbinding riffage from exotic and |
| remote corners of the planet. GOATÆs previous albums World Music |
| and Commune were perfect testaments to this heightened awareness, |
| with Silk Road psychedelia, desert blues, and Third World pop all |
| serving as governing forces within the bandÆs sound. But GOATÆs |
| strange amalgam isnÆt some cheap game of cultural |
| appropriationùitÆs nearly impossible to pinpoint the exact origins |
| of the elusive groupÆs sound. The fact that they pledge allegiance |
| to a spot on the periphery of our maps bolsters the nomadic |
| quality of their sonic explorations. With Requiem, GOAT continue |
| to rock and writhe to a beat beholden to no nation, no state. |
| |
| GOATÆs only outright declaration for Requiem is that it is their |
| ôfolkö album, and the album is focused more on their subdued |
| bucolic ritualism than psilocybin freakouts. But GOAT hasnÆt |
| completely foregone their fiery charmsùtracks like ôAll-Seeing |
| Eyeö and ôGoatfuzzö conjure the sultry heathen pulsations that |
| ensnared us on their previous albums. |
| |
| Perhaps the most puzzling aspect of Requiem comes with the closing |
| track ôUbuntuö. The song is little more than a melodic |
| delay-driven electric piano line, until we hear the refrain from |
| ôDiarabiöùthe first song on their first albumùsneak into the mix. |
| It creates a kind of musical ouroborosùan infinite cycle of |
| reflection and rejuvenation, death and rebirth. Much like fellow |
| recluse Pynchon, rather than offering explanations for their |
| strange trajectories, GOAT create a world where the line between |
| truth and fiction is so obscured that all you can do is bask in |
| their cryptic genius. |
