Goatwhore is an American blackened death metal band renowned for their aggressive soundscapes, blending elements of black metal, thrash, and death metal to create a ferocious sonic assault. Formed in 1997 in New Orleans, Louisiana, the band quickly gained notoriety for their relentless dedication to the underground metal scene and for their intense live performances. Over the years, Goatwhore has established a formidable discography that showcases their evolution as musicians while staying true to their extreme metal roots. Albums like "Blood for the Master" and "Constricting Rage of the Merciless" have become staples within the metal community, praised for their raw energy and intricate musicianship.

With their 2017 release, "Vengeful Ascension," Goatwhore continued to push the boundaries of their sound, exploring more dynamic and atmospheric territories without sacrificing the sheer brutality they're known for. This versatility has enabled the band to appeal to a broad spectrum of metal fans, earning them spots on tours with a diverse range of bands across the metal spectrum. Their lyrical content, often delving into themes of Satanism, apocalypse, and anti-religious sentiment, complements their dark and menacing sound.
