Orange Goblin Announce Special Coup de Grace Holiday Show
You certainly don’t need an extra excuse to go see Orange Goblin play waste to whatever poor, pitiful stage happens to think it can contain them that evening, but the kingpins of London heavy doing 2002’s Coup De Grace (discussed here) in its entirety for the first time ever to mark its 20th anniversary is a pretty good one if you did. The record that produced staples like “Your World Will Hate This,” “Made of Rats,” “Rage of Angels” and “Getting High on the Bad Times” is nothing if not stage-ready, comprised of bowl-you-over riffs and a shove that was a turn from their first few albums but prescient of the identity they’d forge from there on out, just as likely to pull from punk as classic metal or rock, stoner as doom, or their own particular brand of brashness.
The show is Dec. 16. I hope it’s recorded, as I’d love to hear the band they are now tackle the band they were then. But even if not, if you get to go, Orange Goblin holiday shows are an institution unto themselves, and whoever ends up supporting — where you at, Solace? — you just know it’ll be a blowout. If you’ve never seen Orange Goblin and you’re reading this sentence, that is a situation you should rectify as soon as possible. Really. Life is short, time is precious. We’ve all learned that the last few years. Go see Orange Goblin. Go see everything.
