Goatpenis Demo LPs Out Now
Goatpenis “htaeD no tabbaS” MLP
ANTI-GOTH 459
The first and arguably most savage Goatpenis recording from 1992 finally committed to vinyl! Although the Brazilian warmongers borrowed heavily from Blasphemy’s “Fallen Angel of Doom” in the creation of this demos, it exhibits a more primitive, youthful enthusiasm and even greater degree of violence. Precariously straddling the border between music and black noise, “htaeD no tabbaS” is barely held together by the violent percussion and howling vocals that drive its primeval black war noise forward into battle. Whereas the later demos assumed a more recognizable composition, the debut is more suited to those who prefer arranged chaos over actual songs. This 12” MLP release represents the next instalment in the “First Blood” series of early Goatpenis recordings from 1992 to 1994 to be made available by Nuclear War Now! There will be 3 LPs in total, and each demo is to be pressed as a separate 12″ in order to preserve the aesthetic integrity of each original release. Nothing new has been added to modernize the aesthetic, as had been done on previous reissues. All three are to be presented in the glory of their crusty ugliness, as they should be!
Goatpenis “Blessed by War” LP
ANTI-GOTH 460
The second of the three original Goatpenis demos is finally given its due as a proper and complete reissue on 12” vinyl. Whereas all previous reissues of this demo were missing two tracks, “Final Atomic Battery” and “III Mundial War (outro)”, this release includes them. The band itself was able to locate the master tape and digitize these two rare tracks for their long-overdue inclusion. This MLP release represents the final instalment in the “First Blood” series of early Goatpenis recordings from 1992 to 1994 to be made available by Nuclear War Now! There will be 3 LPs in total, and each demo is to be pressed as a separate 12″ in order to preserve the aesthetic integrity of each original release. Nothing new has been added to modernize the aesthetic, as had been done on previous reissues. All three are to be presented in the glory of their crusty ugliness, as they should be!
Goatpenis “Jesus Coward” MLP
ANTI-GOTH 461
At last, the long-overdue and first-ever vinyl reissue of the final and most significant of the original three Goatpenis demos from the early 1990s is unleashed. “Jesus Coward,” along with the debut album, “Inhumanization,” is widely considered to be among the very best of Goatpenis’s output. This represents the initial release in the “First Blood” series of early Goatpenis recordings from 1992 to 1994 to be made available by Nuclear War Now! There will be 3 LPs in total, and each demo is to be pressed as a separate 12″ in order to preserve the aesthetic integrity of each original release. Nothing new has been added to modernize the aesthetic, as had been done on previous reissues. All three are to be presented in the glory of their crusty ugliness, as they should be!
