For the love of Goat: Sanjoy Narayan writes on Sweden’s cosmic folk concept band

Hindustan Times  

A couple of weeks ago, Matt Everitt, a host on the BBC Radio 6 online station, described the mysterious band Goat most aptly when he called them “Sweden’s heavy psychedelic cosmic folk concept band”. On last year’s Levitation Sessions, a live recording, the band chose to shoot the performance on video as well as make a recording as an album. On the track Fool’s Journey, Japanese pan pipes play soothing tunes; on Dollar Bill, the central riff takes one on an extended wah pedal rave that can feel like a time-machine ride back to psychedelic rock’s early days. The band’s debut album, World Music, was a masterclass in psychedelic rock.
