Los Angeles based band Goliathan has shared a new single today, which you can hear only at Ghost Cult! The new song “If It Could Cry, We Would Surely Drown In Its Tears’ comes from their forthcoming new EP album Artifact, releasing on October 30th. You could say the music on Artifact has had a circular journey, as the material was written and mostly recorded around 2006 as the band underwent changes where life got in the way of making art, until now. Re-animated back to life in time for Halloween, the tracks were remixed by Toshi Kasai (Melvins, Red Sparowes, Helmet), and mastered by Gene Grimaldi (Failure, Fantômas). For the cover art (see above), the band also commissioned a new original painting by Jack Elizabeth. The set will be released digitally and on limited-edition 10-inch vinyl on Oct. 30., the vinyl featuring the first two tracks, with “Laid To Waste” available as a digital exclusive. Epic in scope, these songs ache with emotion, shifting from doom-laden riffs, ominous melodic changes, but enough chill moments to blend with their shade in order bring the listener to another plane. More to come from this band as they have most of their next album already written! Jam out to the track now and pre-order at the link below. Continue reading
