Watch this killer interview and live song from capitalchaos.net also on the bill were God Forbid, Arsis, The Human Abstract & Mnemic. http://goatwhore.net Goatwhore is an American blackened death metal band, formed in 1997 in Thibodaux, Louisiana. Biography
In 1997, Goatwhore initially formed when Sammy Duet (formerly of Acid Bath), Zak Nolan and Patrick Bruders began experimenting with black metal. The band's unusual name originated from an experience one of the bandmember's friends had with a stripper.
After Acid Bath disbanded, a four track demo was recorded. Louis Benjamin Falgoust II, singer for Louisiana band Soilent Green, started as replacement for Sammy due to a broken jaw and was asked to stay in the band In 1998, they released another demo under Red Sea Productions.
In 2000, Goatwhore released their first full length album, The Eclipse Of Ages Into Black. Between 2000 and 2002 the band commenced extensive touring, opening for bands such as GWAR, Mortician, and Immolation.
Their second album, Funeral Dirge For The Rotting Sun was released in 2003. A split 7" with Epoch of Unlight was also released later that year. The album would be supported on the Art of Noise 2 tour in the U.S. with Kreator, Vader, Amon Amarth, and Nile.
The band's work was delayed in 2003 by an auto accident involving Falgoust, then on tour with Soilent Green. Touring resumed in 2004, this time in Japan. They also opened for Dark Funeral and Zyklon on The Dojo Volume 9.
Signing to Metal Blade Records in July 2004, the band started writing songs for what would become their third full length album and their first recording on their new label.
Goatwhore released a music video for the song "Blood Guilt Eucharist", which has had play time on MTV2's Headbangers Ball.
Goatwhore's debut album from Metal Blade Records "A Haunting Curse" was released September 5, 2006. According to Revolver Magazine, the album was produced by Hate Eternal's Erik Rutan.
"Alchemy of the Black Sun Cult" is the first single and video from "A Haunting Curse". It was directed and edited by David Brodsky and can be seen on the My Good Eye production company website ([1]). It first aired on MTV2's HeadBanger's Ball on October 7th, 2006. The broadcast version notably omitted the word "Christ" from the lyric "murdering the slaves of Christ" because it was thought that US broadcasters would not approve that sentiment for air. It was shot on August 6th, 2006 on a Panasonic HD Varicam by Brodsky and Director of Photography Mike Milia. The video primarily features footage shot in the bowels of a formerly submerged US Navy Light Ship currently docked on Manhattan's west side.
"Alchemy of the Black Sun Cult" was nominated for Best Video of 2006 on MTV2's Headbanger's Ball.
Goatwhore recently finished a set of U.S. west coast tour dates with Sunn O))) and Celtic Frost. In early 2007, they will continue touring with God Forbid, Arsis, Mnemic, The Human Abstract (January), and Byzantine (February) as part of The Chains of Humanity tour. Followed by a tour with 1349. http://myspace.com/goatwhore Line-up

I can't make out what the interviewer is saying when Ben gives his sarcastic "mmm...ok" response. "Time-out in New Orleans is.." something.

exactly. people just hate diversity i guess.
NocturnalHolocaust (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
Although I did argue, I concur. I have no idea why everyone was replying to an old comment that was just my opinion. Oh, I forgot, people aren't allowed to have different opinions. How foolish of me.
Cheers.

Don't argue tastes. The effort is a waste of time, effort, and most often, existance.
NocturnalHolocaust (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
I'm aware of that. I said that they were mediocre, I didn't question whether they were black metal or not (or did I?). I couldn't care less.
And there is no need to call me an idiot. Get over it. End of discussion. Learn metal history? Oh, you got me!

Lol. Dimmu started as symphonic black metal, and Id still hold them to that. Learn metal history. Idiot.

*Sighs* Cannibal Corpse fans. If they're not fresh out of prison, they're fresh out of the trailer park.
Yeah I said it. No self respecting Death Metal fan listens to Cannibal Corpse.
NocturnalHolocaust (November 30, 1999 at 12:00 am)
It'll be okay. Just take a deep breath and calm down.

Hahahaaa... this from an As I Lay Crying fan? Your opinion is officially null and void in the eyes of any self-respecting metal fan. |
