777 really hits its stride from track 3 onward, making it very difficult to choose a favourite. Yes, the music and vocal delivery are heavily influenced by Electric Wizard, but this is no bad thing given that EW are the undisputed Lords of Doom. Still, Goya are a distinct entity, carving out their own style, and this is pretty damn good for a debut album. The stoned and spaced guitars are amazing. Also, I wish that my past lovers had been as filthy as some of the bass tones on this recording!! Master of Alchemy

ALL HOPE ABANDON, YE WHO ENTER HERE. Through me you go into a city of weeping; through me you go into eternal pain; through me you go amongst the lost people. Hope not ever to see Heaven. I have come to lead you to the other shore; into eternal darkness; into fire and into ice. Do not be afraid; our fate cannot be taken from us; it is a gift. - Inferno, Dante Alighieri.

A terrifically woozy slab of psychedelic stoner rock, where big riffs grind against saxophones, omnichords, and more. Bandcamp New & Notable Feb 17, 2018
The video for "Theurgist," from True Widow's forthcoming "Avvolgere," is as prismatic & hypnotic as the song it accompanies. Bandcamp New & Notable Aug 15, 2016
