Six long years since their latest offering, Swedish occult rock masters YEAR OF THE GOAT return with their fourth studio album, entitled Trivia Goddess, slated for release on September 12, 2025 via Napalm Records!
Following the opening installations of the band’s album trilogy, the award-winning “Angels Necropolis” (2012), and the much-acclaimed “Novis Orbis Terrarum Ordinis” (2019), Trivia Goddess ventures off on its own unique detour. Inspired by the most harrowing moments in women’s history, Trivia Goddess sees the Norrköping, Sweden-based dark rock collective delve deep into the stories of real women, devalued as the lesser sex by churches and by men of a petty god, rising up against the real structures of evil in the world, in true Satanic fashion.
Shortly following the release of the first single “Alucarda”, “The Power Of Eve” arrives alongside an official music video, produced by Finnish renowned, award-winning filmmaker Sami Mustonen. Cut to the radio edit of the song, the video features immersive sets, evocative choreography, and striking visuals, amplifying the ethereal nature and power of YEAR OF THE GOAT’s masterful songwriting.
About the track, YEAR OF THE GOAT said “’[…but of the tree of the knowledge of good and evil you shall not eat, for in the day that you eat of it you shall surely die.’ Genesis 2:17
Eve challenged the lie uttered by the “God” and did not die on that day. The only one who told the truth in the story was the serpent. Eve gave us all the power to see where the true evil lies, it is not with the serpent, satan or Lucifer…”
Mixed by Tom Dalgety at Psalm Studios, Wiltshire, UK, and mastered by Magnus Lindberg / Magnus Lindberg Productions, 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, driven by the dark sounds of the 60s and 70s, sees the band doubling down on all expectations, showcasing their many facets with grandeur. Bow down to the Trivia Goddess from the one and only YEAR OF THE GOAT!
