    It's hard to believe it's been four years since the debut release of The Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty's kick excellent debut "Ways of Hearing." But growth takes time and rather than rush a follow-up album to market to capitalize on their newfound success, the group opted to take their time and focus their efforts at their own pace. It paid off.

    On their much anticipated sophomore album, ambition is key. The name of the album itself "The Iliad and the Odyssey and the Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty Kick" spans a glorious 71 characters and is bound to swallow the screen of whatever device that attempts to display the text. The essence of the album is built upon delicate, pleading vocals that sit atop stirring dynamic movements that seem to move between small and vulnerable to full-on symphonies that are bursting with emotion.

    "The Iliad and the Odyssey and the Goalie's Anxiety at the Penalty Kick" will be released by veteran indie label Count Your Lucky Stars on April 25th, 2024 (an homage to their first released single of the album) during the deadtime when the cold end of winter is transitioning to a hopeful and promising spring- an apt metaphor that seems to encompass the heart of the album.

lyrics

knots on the calendar, the days are short enough
they will come after us, i hope you’ll feel enough
i’m waiting for your call
days on the calendar, i admit i’ve found it hard
not more than usual but it’s usually not so hard to relay all my thoughts
what hobbies have you found? i’ve been mailing paper planes to every sitting u.s. senator to see how many hit my window
so far all i’ve found is a new space under the couch where
a brand new kind of space where
a whole new kind of space is
tall man in a hotel window, hat in his hand and a mint on his pillow
called the cops ‘cause he’s feeling sad
told him there’s a bike that he could borrow
on the surface it’s a placid river, but underneath there is a swirling current
got a friend who said he died in there. got another friend who said he’s gonna try to
fat man on the kitchen floor, fat piece of shit in a blue recliner
but that’s okay because it’s nice outside. i found a tree that i can write to
hey, sam, i hope you’re doing okay
hey, syd, i never got your letter
hey, mom, i won’t be home this christmas
i’ll write a song that you can cry to
on the surface it’s a swimming pool, but underneath there is a hole to hide in
got a friend who said he died in there. got another friend who said he’s gonna try to
