Satanic-metal band Goatwhore plays Tampa Orpheum on Friday

New Orleans-based metal outfit Goatwhore is pretty much the stereotype that suburban Jesus freaks see in every band or artist that even loosely associates with heavy metal.

Its latest album Angels Hung from the Arches of Heaven is as Satanic, furious, and loaded with witchcraft as you could want.

If that’s your bag, Goatwhore returns to Tampa Bay on Friday, Jan. 6, and tickets to see the band at Orpheum are still available for $20 & up.

This is Goatwhore’s first local gig in five years, alongside fellow metalheads Caveman Cult, Herakleion, Must.Not.Kill, and Tampa’s own psychedelic metal quartet, The Path.
