Having pushed all the right stops with their debut single "Country Sleaze", Goat Girl have quickly returned with their raw AA-side "Scum".
"Scum" sees Goat Girl team a stripped back, country riff with an ominous warning, creating a short ritual that'll haunt saloons for decades.
The solemn tones fuse Goat Girl's ode to the less appreciative people in the world, whilst also building the track into a country tale good enough to come straight from the Wild West.
"Scum" reveals Goat Girl's undressed sound, and certainly gives the message to not mess with this girl group.
Their new track "Scum" appears as an AA-side to Goat Girl's debut "Country Sleaze", out now via Rough Trade. Goat Girl tour the UK from October through to January.
