A two man metallic project led with the venerable guitarist (and because of this particular work, bassist and vocalist) Mike Hickey (who also produced a name for himself in such projects and groupings as Venom, Cronos, Carcass, Cathedral, Changed Dominance, as well as the Hounds of Hasselvander) Goatreign released their first EP, a personal titled affair, in 2007. Critically well received, Goatreign (Hickey and drummer Shawn Progen) explored various different metal designs. The task was agreed upon to Wabana Information.
