A Los Angeles band that built a following with theatrical live shows and songs about goblin antics.
If you need a quick sense of their vibe, 'Prince Of The Land Of Stench' and 'They Came From Space' cover the goblin-metal territory pretty well. Both have that mix of serious riffs and completely unserious subject matter.
Nekrogoblikon's music isn't just another metal act, it's a full-blown fantasy world with riffs. Songs like 'Prince Of The Land Of Stench' deliver aggressive thrash and black metal vocals while spinning tales of goblin mischief. Their over-the-top videos and stage costumes with members named John Goblikon and Tim Goblikon turn their shows into something closer to theater than a standard metal gig.
They formed in Los Angeles in 2006 and put out their debut album 'Goblin Island' in 2009. The 2015 album 'Heavy Meta' brought wider attention with its title track's catchy melody and ridiculous video. Their setlists still lean on tracks like 'Goblin Christmas Armageddon Part II' that blend metal intensity with humorous fantasy lyrics.
Keep it compact: a lyric you come back to, a live memory, or the part of the catalog you would point someone toward first.
