Vs the Greatest of All Time

Archers of Loaf vs. The Greatest of All Time (often shortened to either "Greatest of all Time" or simply GOAT) is the first EP by North Carolina indie rock band Archers of Loaf. The EP was recorded shortly after their first album Icky Mettle, and the styles are very similar.

The cover art for the EP includes a photograph of former Toronto Maple Leafs star King Clancy.

Critical reception
Robert Christgau gave the EP an A− grade, writing that the Archers of Loaf "...sound like a live band ready to service a living audience, their gleeful anger felt rather than assumed." When asked if this remark meant that the Archers of Loaf had fooled Christgau through their performance on the EP, the band's frontman Eric Bachmann told CMJ New Music Monthly, "Yeah...it probably just means we're good at it." In 2012, Pitchfork Media's Paul Thompson wrote that the EP ranked "among indie rock's finest short-players", describing it as "17 utterly riveting minutes of bloodletting."
