Goat Girl have mixed this scrappy sound with the gothic ennui of Nick Cave and the Bad Seeds and the doomy experimentalism of Tom Waits

The FT
Their debut album has a scrappy, vagrant energy, which flows in ebbs and swells of intensity through 19 tracks, many under two minutes long

Drowned In Sound
At just 40 minutes in length it doesn't stick around long enough to incur tedium, and what's more, each of its consistent parts makes for an explosive whole that demands repeat listens

The Line Of Best Fit

PopMatters
For its chaos and often mismatched layers, Goat Girl is an album that shows a well-developed skill set, and how Goat Girl the band has more to it than initially meets the ear

The debut LP from this South London band is absurd, playful, and more than a little unsettling, sounding at times like a less romantic Libertines

Loud And Quiet
The lack of focus threatens to derail proceedings as the album lags a little in the middle, but Goat Girl sound as if they have the potential to be a band for the times; nit-picking, therefore, feels churlish

It's the quick interuptions of confusion, such as "A Swamp Dogs Tale," a minute-and-a-half long spoken-word track that ventures into grime territory, that this album could do without
