    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

wild rose in the heather
i didn’t ask if i could take your sweater before i left with it on
wild parliaments around you
some winter loneliness surrounds you
your friends are far but they’re not dead
i can see the map with different shading
pictures all over the table
each one from a different time
while the months turn into days i
practice tracing over pages so i’ll always know how
she simply had to suffer
she simply had to cry
her hands were calloused leather
while i wasted my december pushing blocks and pulling levers
they stole a billion bucks from you
the wilderness that i got caught in
diana in a giant’s locket
her fingerprints on the inside
i can see the ground so subtly shaking
they’re running all over the table, leaving tracks for you to find
wild rose in the heather
didn’t ask if i could take your sweater before i put it on
