BAND OF THE DAY: GOAT KNIGHT

Seriously. Goat Knight. A knight who is also a goat, or possibly a knight in the service of some Satanic goat order, or possibly the guardians of the goat metal underground. Do you really want me to go through the whole bullshit chorus of selling you on an idea of a band or can we all just agree that this utterly amazing/profoundly stupid name is reason enough to check them out?

Oh, go on then.

Forming in 2010 in Taiwan, four-piece (they presumably added someone after taking this photo) lo-fi thrashbastards Goat Knight have a wanky mission statement and two rehearsal tracks of driving, pre-death metal extremity that do all the real communicating in lieu of an English language discography. A septic, festering open wound in which the flies of Unleashed, Death, Possessed, Kreator and Sodom have settled to lay their eggs, Goat Knight are not unlike the seemingly defunct apparently active Bazoƶka in terms of influences and fiercely primitive end product.
