Goatlord Re-Issuing "Demo '87" And "Reh '88"

In 1985, Goatlord emerged from beneath the desolate sands of the Mojave desert and released a first demo two years later, following the replacement of the band's original bassist.

Though the group would ultimately become best known for first full-length album, "Reflections of the Solstice," it was on this first recording, known succinctly as "Demo '87," that Goatlord established the prototype for its primeval sound. The tracks on "Demo '87" were clearly a necessary stepping stone in the descent towards the black/doom/death rituals that would later become further explored on subsequent recordings.

With the greatest of personal pleasure and pride, Nuclear War Now! announces its reissue of the complete, original "Demo '87" in conjunction with a first-time release of a 1988 rehearsal recording that exemplifies Goatlord's majestic devolution. The "Reh '88" recording, which until this point was unavailable to the public, was unearthed and graciously offered by Don of the Dead (Nunslaughter), one of the earliest and most fervent worshipers of this black-doom cult. The track listing for this version of the release is as follows:
