King Goat

Progressive doom isn't a common musical description, as the two genres don't often intermix. Yet it's the best description of Colorado's King Goat, who debuted with the excellent self-released Conduit in 2016 and then followed that up with the similar and also well-done Debt Of Aeons two years later. The slow-to-mid-paced tempos, heavy riffing, and Trim's distinctive sonorous vocals keep the band rooted in the doom camp, but the songwriting takes some twists and turns that bring out the progressive element. As of this writing it's been five years since Debt's release, hopefully the band has more in store, as they have a fairly original sound and should appeal to fans of doom as well as doom-adjacent metal.
