Walter Martino is niet meer en daarmee tijd voor deze legendarische Italiaanse progrock band om een eigen topic te hebben. Frobbert zal ze wel kennen, aangezien ze samengewerkt hebben met Dario Argento, expert in het horror genre.
Goblin biography
Founded in Rome, Italy in 1972 - Disbanded in 1982 - Regrouped in 2000, 2005 and 2009 - Reformed in 2010 as "NEW GOBLIN" and since 2013 also as "Claudio Simonetti's GOBLIN"
Symphonic band from Italy who adapted their music to the movie industry, mainly horror movies from the 70's. The outstanding keyboard work performed by Claudio Simonetti is a trademark of GOBLIN. Most of their stuff is really heavy and moody, with a Floydian progressive feel, and generally pretty good.
Beginning with their first "Profundo Rosso" GOBLIN were obviously better suited to soundtrack music than as a studio offering and the majority of their work was in this vein. Their excellent second "Roller" is a very nice album of traditional symphonic progressive rock from the Italian group. Newcomers to the group will want to investigate their heralded soundtrack albums first, particularly "Profondo Rosso" and "Suspiria". The "essential" GOBLIN works. Highly recommended for fans of soundtrack music.
Deze plaat uit 1975 heb ik op vinyl, aanrader
Tomorrow is yesterday's history and art will still be there, even if life terminates.
Dat klopt. Ik heb ze ook drie keer gezien. Waarvan ze één keer de soundtrack speelden bij Dawn Of The Dead en één keer bij Suspiria. Die laatste soundtrack is serieus goed trouwens.
En voor de duidelijkheid, ik heb het hier natuurlijk over de origine films, niet de remakes.
