Their new album is amazing and I’m personally stoked to perform ‘Endless Well’ live with them.

With sprawling compositions, titan-heavy riffs drenched in fuzz and haunting atmospherics, Goya don’t just play doom music: they embody it to the core. Unrelenting and immersive, their fourth studio album, In the Dawn of November, is raucous, hypnotic and defiantly punishing. Recorded by Jack Endino (High On Fire, Soundgarden), this new sonic onslaught from the desert trio takes no prisoners while sweeping everything in its path.
Formed in 2011 by guitarist and vocalist Jeffrey Owens, Goya’s 2012 demo showcased their early potential, but it was their debut full-length 777 (2013) that announced their fearsome arrival in the doom underground. With sprawling, riff-heavy compositions and occult-tinged lyrics, 777 resonated deeply with fans of titanic sludge-metal. Continuing to evolve, Goya released Obelisk in 2015, a concept album that refined their blend of psychedelic doom. They followed this with their magnum opus, 2017’s Harvester of Bongloads, another concept album that leaned as heavily as ever into their fuzz-laden, riff-driven aesthetic and further cemented their legacy of unrelenting doom and immersive sonic landscapes.
In the summer of 2024, Goya returned to the road for a month-long US tour after taking a few years to write their fourth album, In the Dawn of November, to be released in the spring of 2025 via New Mexico-based label Blues Funeral Recordings (Acid King, Lowrider, Dozer). Goya entered Soundhouse Studios in Seattle in the fall with legendary producer Jack Endino (High On Fire, Year of the Cobra, Soundgarden) to lay down a monolithic work of graveyard grooves and bleak reflections to herald their towering return with their most accomplished and unwaveringly bone-crushing record to date — leading the trio to ink a deal with revered Albuquerque-based label Blues Funeral Recordings.
