Neue Platte | CD | Milking The Goatmachine

Appears in Digipak.

Humanity has always been fascinated by extraterrestrial danger, think of 'War of the Worlds', 'Invasion of the Body Snatchers', or 'Alien'. But the real danger comes from goats from the planet GoatEborg! The inventors of Goatgrind are back to remind humanity that they are in a constant state of subjugation. MILKING THE GOATMACHINE sharpens the fan musically with this 'concept album about nonsense', as shown by the symbolic title NEUE PLATTE along with the fitting cover artwork. The goat brothers present new pearls of good taste, lovingly and with a wink, titled 'The Wrong One To Milk With', 'In Battle There Is No Straw', or 'Twilight Of The Thundergoat'. What doesn't give humanity a chance is the unique catchiness of the music recorded by Fernando Hermansa at Fat-Knob Recordings Studios (Knife, Carnal Ghoul, Miseo), as elements of death, grind, thrash, and crust merge into an irresistibly groovy mixture that consciously appeals to the lowest instincts of every metalhead. Modern slams, death metal overtones, Carcass grooves, brutal rolling, grind blasts with Scorpions breaks, or a disturbing 'Ren & Stimpy' intro - the goatgrind of MILKING THE GOATMACHINE stands for fiercely delivered variety. And whoever survives a 'Careless Whisper' in the end is prepared for life.

The lyrics, created according to the Grimme Prize-worthy 'Rhyme yourself or I'll eat you' scheme, about Viking goats and other nonsense, confirm the claim to want to appear more foolish than one already is, as confirmed by Goatleeb Udder (a construction law lawyer specializing in barns). Fuck world domination, this is pure criticism of the zeitgeist. A former NASA employee, a doctor of astrophysics who does not want to be named because he fears for his safety as a G.O.A.T. in his own scene, confirms the uniqueness of MILKING THE GOATMACHINE: 'The goats that stepped out of the spaceship on Earth probably have little in common with the goats that got on board in GoatEborg when you consider distances and conditions. But mutations and tumors are probably as hip in the goatgrind scene as tramp stamps in drunken Ruhr region rock clubs in the late 90s.' If you're into powerful death metal without blinders, NEUE PLATTE is exactly right!
