The Profile

Goatsnake is an American stoner/doom metal band formed in Los Angeles in 1996 by guitarist Greg Anderson and vocalist Pete Stahl. Known for heavy, blues-drenched riffs and soulful vocals, they released I (1999) and Flower of Disease (2000), followed by the EP Trampled Under Hoof (2004). After a hiatus, they returned with Black Age Blues (2015).

Formed in Los Angeles (1996). Core figures include Greg Anderson (guitar) and Pete Stahl (vocals). Key releases: I (1999), Flower of Disease (2000), Trampled Under Hoof (2004, EP), Black Age Blues (2015). Style blends stoner rock, doom metal, and heavy blues.

Three DeBaser reviews paint Goatsnake as California’s low-and-slow stoner/doom engine: heavy blues rewritten in heat and dust. Peter Stahl’s voice is praised as hypnotic and soulful; Greg Anderson’s riffs as monolithic and acidic. Flower of Disease is hailed as their peak, darker and doomier, with Sabbath echoes and harmonica. Trampled Under Hoof closes a celebrated cycle, tipping the hat to Saint Vitus and Southern rock.
