For the last 20 years or so, Norway has been the home ofultra-serious, no-fun-allowed black metal. But in 2010, it seemsNorway is showing a different side, with fun-loving, non-blackmetal bands like Kvelertak and Goat The Head, from Trondheim. GoatThe Head is a death metal band. I have no idea what the name issupposed to mean (if anything), but the final track of sophomorefull-length Doppelgängers seems to provide their manifesto: "PrimalCaveman Death Metal". They sound a lot like their neighbours to theeast in Unleashed. It's very simple, pure death metal, withoutanything technical, and no weird time signatures. Most of it'smid-paced, but they effortlessly shift to much faster tempo andback. The bass is just loud enough and the drums just excitingenough to keep it going, with nice fills that never sound likeshowing off. The vocals sound like an ordinary human growl, butprimal. In contrast to Unleashed, however, this music is done in asense of fun. They may let that sense get slightly out of hand whenthey let gang vocals creep in on "The Hunt Is On (Sexy Son)", butthe rest of the time it works perfectly. The songs havehead-bobbing rhythms, killer riffs, just-flashy-enough solos, andmemorable shout-along choruses. Despite their primitivism, they doshow some slight tendencies toward experimentation. "This Tube Isthe Gospel", with its samples, choir, and female vocals, soundslike a parody of the gospel music you'd hear on a televangelism TVshow. Album standout "The Ubiquitous Cube" has slow, minimalist,dissonant verses. Goat The Head have proven that getting moretechnical and more brutal are not the only ways to make a greatdeath metal album, even in 2010. All it has to be is catchy and funand this is fun
