"The Crack" by Goat Girl

Goat Girl have dropped their new single “The Crack”, which is now available via Rough Trade Records. The song is lifted from their forthcoming release On All Fours , available January 29, 2021. Goat Girl say the track, “emerged from an imagined post-apocalyptic world whereby people flee into space for a new life on an unruined planet, as the result of the pillaging of Planet Earth.”

On All Fours was produced by Dan Carey (Kate Tempest, Black Midi, Franz Ferdinand) in South London in early 2020, and will be available on Black Double LP, transparent pink double LP & CD. It sees the band veer away from the confrontational lyricism of their debut & indicates Goat Girl’s maturing perspectives in discussing the world’s injustices and social prejudices, using the music to explore global, humanitarian, environmental and mindful wellbeing. Throughout On All Fours, Goat Girl’s frequent use of sci-fi synthesizers, off-beat chord progressions, analogue drum machines, diverse vocal styles and distinct, gritty guitars fuse a musical language that expresses both former characteristics and newer developments of the band’s sound and vision.
