The Goat puts out

The two new Goat Eater releases are now available for order.  


Fecalove - Forever Young  
Italy's one-man, debauchery laden, masturbating disaster has come back to Goat Eater for his second full length release. Fecalove's signature cut up junk noise has only gotten better with age. This is what I'd imagine it would sound like to over-dose on viagra, cialis, levitra and vodka martinis. The usual squalling feedback and in-the-red amplified implements are all there but this release is punctuated by tense silences, off kilter tape and electronic manipulations, tortured and effects laden vocals and bass heavy rumblings. I'm not sure that I'd be comfortable saying that Nicola Vinciguerra has matured but he has most definitely grown into something new and that something is, as usual, disgusting.  

Tim the Band - Thank You Roland  
...and now for something completely different. Goat Eater has never issued anything quite so musical, until now. Tim the Band is a two piece, multi instrumental jazz outfit, that runs the gamut from free jazz to old standards to fusion and beyond. Dan Pearson and Chris Olsen have stripped down their usual truck load of instruments to just a hand-full of saxophones; soprano, tenor and baritone along with a few loop stations to create this beautiful invocation to the late, great Rashaan Roland Kirk. Loops of saxophone build into something more and more interesting as time goes by. This three track CD continues to transform and will most assuredly transfix the listener.  


Each CD is $11, postage paid, anywhere in the US. $12 to Canada and $14 for the rest of the world. Get both of them for $18, postage paid in the US. $19 to Canada and $21 for the rest of the world.

Both CDs are pro pressed and printed CDrs, packaged in the usual Goat Eater Arts style, with every attention paid to detail. They are, as usual, both limited to 93 copies.  


These items will be added to the Goat Eater Arts Big Cartel store, soon. If there happens to be something there that you'd like, please feel free to contact me at HoorpaarKraat@hotmail.com and I'll work out shipping details for you.  
If you happen to live in the New York City area, you can avoid shipping and receive instant gratification by picking these up at Hospital Productions.  
Thanks for your continued support over the years.

The Goat is the Ship of the Desert




















I am very proud to announce the release of the Hoor-paar-Kraat "Ship of the Desert" C32, on Brooklyn's own Period Tapes. This cassette is an edition of 46 copies, as is standard with all Period Tapes releases. Period Tapes, if you're not already familiar with them, is under the same management as Dias Records. Collectively, both labels have released work by These Feathers Have Plumes, Genesis P-Orridge, Mother Flock, Chaos Magick, Twin Stumps, Psychic TV, Tor Lundval, Maurizio Bianchini, Cold Cave and others.
Tim the Band and Fecalove CDs will be back from the plant soon and they will be available, shortly thereafter. The Psychic Fare/Hoor-paar-Kraat split C32 is also being dubbed.
Of course, this is all just the tip of the iceberg.

Presentation is Everything















Just a quick post to let you know that the new CDs by Fecalove and Tim the Band are almost available. As with all Goat Eater releases, they look beautiful and have consumed a small portion of my life, which I will never get back. We're waiting on the actual CDs to be sent to us and then they'll be ready.

Poor Ecominy













Due to circumstances beyond our control, we need to sell some stuff.

Here's a chance to own a one of a kind, hand made version of An Anagram Hypnotic, our first LP.

Eureka Tapes (the complete recordings)







































Please note that this item is not for sale and is a special edition that was made for the fine folks who have helped to make these beautiful recordings, and their ultimate wider distribution, possible. All of the material contained within these 11 packages, will be released in a larger edition, sometime in the beginning of 2010 by the collaborative efforts of Basses Frequences (France) & our old friends at Small-Doses (USA) as a 2 CD set.
All artwork will be completely different and the sounds will be mastered by Kris Lapke (Ash Pool, Alberech, Hospital Productions, etc...)

For now, you can just bask in their beauty.

Goat Whispering

Two new Goat Eater releases are on their way to you very soon.
Fecalove - Forever Young & TIM the Band -Thank You Roland















Any of you who know Goat Eater, or me personally, know of my love for Italy's masturbating disaster aka Nicola Vinceguerra. Not only does he produce some of the most earsplitting and perverse noise but he's also a wonderfully talented artist. Forever Young is much more tense than his previous Goat Eater release Erection but still delivers like a well deserved kick in the balls.




















TIM the Band is the work of Dan Pearson and Chris Olsen, two of the most amazingly talented musicians that I've ever come across. Some of you may know Dan Pearson's work as he loaned his lips and lungs for a track on the release of A Taxonomy of Divine Organisms. Thank You Roland is his homage to the late, great Rashaan Roland Kirk and this three track work of multiple horns and loops would surely make him proud.

Both of these CD-Rs will be made in editions of 93 numbered copies and packaged to the usual Goat Eater standard of beauty and perfection.

Coming sooner rather than later, from Hoor-paar-Kraat, are a few cassettes to be issued by Peasant Magik, Acid Casualty Productions and Period Tapes.

Peasant Magik will be releasing Handy Feet a C20, Period Tapes will be releasing an *as of yet untitled* C30, in their usual edition of 46 copies and Acid Casualty Productions will be reissuing Asha-Dasha, on cassette. At very least, this time more than 46 people will get to hear it.

Other releases from Persistence in Mourning, Nicholas Szczepanik, Psychic Fare, Last, etc... are in the works. I'll post more information when I have it.

Things to Do in Brooklyn When You're Broke






















The six or seven of you who actually follow this blog may not even be in close enough proximity to actually attend the above event but I may as well let you all know that Above and Below, which began as a six week long exhibit in Costa Mesa's The Box Gallery, is now set to be hung in South Slope Brooklyn's own Roots Cafe. After an exhibit in Andrew's Art Museum NC we're happy to show this work to an entirely new crowd and we couldn't have hoped for a better environment in which to do it.

I won't wax poetic about the place because my praise for this establishment and it's staff would never end.
I'll just say this; if you're in Brooklyn on July 30th and you're looking for the most interesting thing you could do or see, come to Roots Cafe on Fifth Ave and 18th St. This night in particular will feature the same audio treatment as both the previous openings. The night will begin with the Hoor-paar-Kraat soundtrack to the exhibit "Taxonomy of Divine Organisms" but the similarity ends there. The remainder of the evening will be at the hands of such built in talents as owner Jamey Hamm and recent Oregon refugee Ryan Lamm. Also, there's some guy named Johnny. I don't know his last name but he goes by "The Johns" and he's amazing. Goat Eater will be releasing a tape of his in the future but I'll talk more about that later.

For now, just be there and bring your own bottle. While you're at it bring two; one of them being for me.
