Orange Goblin is back in the saddle and not only are they surviving but they continue to uphold the traditions of great British heavy metal and forge forward. They return with their stunning new album ‘Thieving from the House of God’ which manages to encapsulate all of the unique traits that we’ve become so familiar with from their previous four albums. From the psychedelic noodlings of ‘Frequencies from Planet Ten’ to the greasy, biker groove of ‘Time Travelling Blues’. The crushing cosmic doom of ‘The Big Black’ right through to the aggressive punk-metal fusion of ‘Coup de Grace’ – it’s all evident here, as well as a definite progression which sees the Goblin continue to motor onward, freeing themselves from any stagnant pigeonhole that may be thrown their way.
