Goat Girl share their mesmerising new single ‘gossip’, embracing the electronic side of their music, the band took inspiration from Aphex Twin, Koreless, Tirzah and Gilla Band. Accompanied by a video, directed and edited by singer/guitarist Lottie Pendlebury. Watch below!
Recently expanded to a four piece with the addition of Ruby Kyriakides (they/him) as a permanent member, Goat Girl explain how the track came about and developed its own identity compared to the other tracks recorded at the time.
“We started recording gossip in Ireland with John ‘Spud’ Murphy making Below The Waste but it felt more like it’s own thing than a part of the album. We took the stems from Dublin and reworked them in London with Ruby. We wanted to lean into its electronic potential and do something quite different sonically. Lyrically, it uses natural imagery as a metaphor for contemplating hearsay and destructive behaviours.”
Goat Girl’s approach to Below The Waste is confident and mature, while maintaining a playful sense of curiosity and wonder. They weave effortlessly between disparate elements of expansive noise-rock, delicate folk experimentation and satisfying synth-pop; their unique combination of styles and unorthodox recording methods a testament to a new collaborative style of production.
