Prog/Stoner Band CHRON GOBLIN Release Second Single ‘Oblivion’ Off New Album “Here Before”
Chron Goblin are back at it this week releasing the second single ‘Oblivion’ from their upcoming album “Here Before” Scheduled to be unveiled on September 27, 2019 via Grand Hand Records.
Fuzzy distortion and smooth bass lines await fans of stoner metal in this slick and dirty track that will get your insides buzzing. CHRON GOBLIN noted in Kerrang as one of “The 20 Canadian bands you need to know right now” they bring an exciting energy that can be felt throughout the album and witness at one of their live gigs.
Band comments:
“‘Oblivion’ was one of the first songs we had finished for the new album. This track feels like a transition from our previous album Backwater into the style and sounds that we leaned on in writing Here Before. It’s got a nice blend of heavy riffage and groove but with lots of space and room for vocals to breathe. We’ve been playing this track live a fair amount recently, often opening with it or at least early in the set.”
Rock and sludge combine into a mix that set CHRON GOBLIN apart from other bands in the genre and after 10 years, they have perfected their craft releases tunes that have been enjoyed around the world. Fans of Red Fang, Kyuss, and Orange Goblin, take note! This is your new favourite band.
The second single ‘Oblivion’ can be heard via DOPE Magazine HERE.
Album pre-order is available on Bandcamp here.
