🐐 Driven by the dark sounds of the 60s and 70s, YEAR OF THE GOAT returns to the scene more majestic, epic and melodic, while also sounding more evil than ever. The wait for a new studio album was worth it, as Trivia Goddess sees the band doubling down on all expectations, showcasing their many facets with grandeur. Bow down for the Trivia Goddess by the one and only YEAR OF THE GOAT!
Inspired by the most harrowing moments in women's history – vilified by churches and men of a petty god, devalued as the lesser sex throughout the history of the Abrahamic religions – in true satanic fashion, "Trivia Goddess" sees the Norrköping, Sweden-based dark rock collective oppose the structures of true evil in the world. Evoking a sinister, almost medieval spirit on tracks such as "Power of Eve", the band shows its epic, powerful and expeditious side, while "Alucarda" captivates listeners with an irresistibly catchy 70s hard rock vibe. On the album’s title track, the term 'witch hunt' takes on new meaning as Hekate, the mother of witches and the "Trivia Goddess", is called upon. Over the course of eight years, 280 people were killed for the crime of witchcraft in Sweden in what was to be called “the great noise”, and now, YEAR OF THE GOAT provides its haunting soundtrack, dedicated to all those lost souls.
🤘🏻 The quintet FIRMAMENT plays Heavy Rock/Metal in the sonic style of the 1970s. Drawing inspiration from everything the night sky has to offer in terms of rock music, the band unites influences from various phases of music history – from proto-metal to NWOBHM. Their sound feels familiar yet ventures into new territory – a time travel experience connecting past and future. Firmament blend the characteristic trademarks of these eras into a sound that resonates not only in the ear but, above all, in the heart.
Since 2022, the classic line-up of drums, bass, twin guitars, and vocals has brought their epic, dark, yet classic heavy sound to the stage. The band has performed at festivals such as Muskelrock, Starlett Stock, and Trveheim, establishing themselves as a captivating live act that has received highly positive feedback from the press, the scene, and fans alike.
This is built on the songs from their 2023 debut album We Don’t Rise, We Just Fall (Dying Victims Productions) and their EP Gathered Under Open Skies. Now, FIRMAMENT open the second chapter of their story with their new album For Centuries Alive, which has been released in fall 2025 via Dying Victims Productions. With dedication to their new work, FIRMAMENT explore new sonic and lyrical worlds – celebrating “Her Majesty” – music in all its glory.
