Goblin Cock has announced a new LP, ‘Necronomidonkeykongimicon,’ out September 2nd via Joyful Noise Recordings. This is a protest album that the band describes as “a crushingly brutal Dear John letter to society,” You can grab it right now on pre-order.
For a first taste of the album, you can stream opener Something Haunted via Soundcloud below.
Goblin Cock is a band from beyond time, beyond space, beyond our naive concept of dimension in metal. Since before our pathetic “god” had supposedly “created” us and our kind, Lord Phallus was hunkered in a cybertimeship/fun dungeon, skating the layers of what was considered “true metal” in all societies and in all generations. Eventually, His Majesty realized that he really didn’t care and launched a full-scale war against bland metal with emphasis on having a good time.
2005’s ‘Bagged and Boarded’ was the first assault on our laughable five senses (Lord Phallus and his kind have 32), followed by 2009’s sonically intense ‘Come With Me if You Want to Live’. The band’s upcoming release – their most concise album to date – invokes the spirit of Pure Fun while appeasing their love of Doomed Art.
‘Necronomidonkeykongimicon’ is an auditory tome of such importance that it needs to be experienced before the Secret Bastards find a way to marginalize it out of existence forever.
