Clean Slate

Since 2003 Goat Motor has prided themselves on creating a Hard-driven Rock and Blues sound reminiscent of the late-60's/early 70's power trios and quartets, while amalgamating deep driving 90's Grunge-era riffs and Electric Jazz progressions. With their latest release, the group tends to simplify it's compositional structure and remain true to the less is more proverb with songs such as Stand Up while driving home the point with restless and beguiling melodies in Sent to Find a Love and Slate. Guitarist Nate Wolverton and bassist Dustin Fillion flawlessly pick up where they left off from their 2007 self-title release with alluring solos and immaculate instrumental story lines that span the entire record. Drummer Brad Dickert makes his presence felt early and often on tracks such as Happens All the Time with turbulent, yet discerning fills, while bringing a whole new life to the unversed Patto 1970 remake Hold Me Back. Throughout the span of the seven tracks presented on Clean Slate, one element remains true; the trio took an insurmountable amount of time to assure that this release is something just about any music enthusiast can get behind and enjoy.
