Art-rockers Godcaster, based in Brooklyn, have blessed the ears of underground music fans with their self-titled sophomore album. The sextet comprised of Bruce Ebersol, Judson Kolk, Jan Fontana, Von Kolk, David McFaul, and Ryan West have captured their theatrical and chaotic energy on this record, transcending any of their other work.
While technically an extension of 2020’s Long Haired Locusts, last year’s Saltergasp presented the band in a different light, subverting the tongue-in-cheek funk rock gestures of their debut into thrashing, high tempo motifs and noise-scrambled shreds of wailing riffs. The band spoke about their songwriting, playing live, and the future of their sound.
