Hells Headbangers proudly presents the latest EP from the infamous Peruvian black/death metal outfit GOAT SEMEN, titled "Fuck Christ." Available on CD, 12" vinyl, and cassette tape, this release marks a significant moment in the band's storied career.
GOAT SEMEN emerged at the forefront of the South American black/death metal resurgence in the early 2000s, gaining notoriety with their seminal 2002 demo. Over the years, they have built a legendary status, culminating in their 2015 debut album "Ego Svm Satana," which showcased the brutal essence of South American metal. Now, after nearly a decade, they return with "Fuck Christ," an EP that delivers a concentrated dose of their unrelenting sound.
The EP features five tracks, clocking in at a blistering 19 minutes, yet it feels both intense and comprehensive. From the opening moments, GOAT SEMEN unleashes a maelstrom of sonic fury, blending raw aggression with a surprisingly clean and clear production. This clarity enhances the visceral impact of each instrument, allowing the band's gritty, chaotic energy to shine through without the muddiness often associated with their genre.
"Fuck Christ" intensifies the ferocity seen in "Ego Svm Satana," pushing the boundaries of extreme metal with an unrelenting assault on the senses. The EP captures the band's signature style—attacking from all angles, creating a sense of impending implosion with each track. Even when the tempo slows to a doom-laden crawl, the intensity remains palpable, showcasing GOAT SEMEN's ability to evoke dread and power in equal measure.
For fans of the old gods of South American metal—Sarcofago, Krisiun, Hadez, Sextrash, and Mystifier—GOAT SEMEN's "Fuck Christ" is a must-have. The EP stands as a testament to the band's unwavering commitment to their brutal sound and their refusal to compromise. In a world of fleeting trends, GOAT SEMEN remains a bastion of pure, unadulterated metal fury.
