Across 19 tracks in just 40 minutes, Goat Girl’s self-titled debut creates a half-fantasy world out of a very dirty, ugly city reality.
It’s a very English album - sharp-eyed observations like The Kinks, louche rage like The Slits - but it’s also full of swampy, swaggering guitars and singer Lottie’s filthy drawl.
Lead single Cracker Drool is at once jaunty and sinister, a foreboding tale full of swirling guitar, echoing vocals and synthetic drum hits that stumbles and gurgles straight into Slowly Reclines, an equally menacing and considerably heavier track. Creep is, predictably and grimly enough, inspired by actual events: Creep on the train / I really want to smash your head in. On Country Sleaze, she sings about sex in a way that embraces visceral reality and defeats shame.
Goat Girl is altogether an album crafted with intention, and invites imaginations to run wild; it draws listeners in to its half-fantasy world from the slow fade, eerie instrumental intro Salty Sounds, to the gorgeous, unsettling closer Tomorrow which ends with dawn-chorus birds and the feeling of new possibilities after a long and messy night.
