Orange Goblin

Cut from the same beer-stained cloth as the greats, UK stoner rock metal act ORANGE GOBLIN are still riding high and leading the pack in balls to the wall heavy metal thunder. Emerging amid the exhilarating melee of the mid-‘90s stoner rock and doom explosion, ORANGE GOBLIN immediately endeared themselves to a generation of metal fans by simply going for it at full, beer-swilling pelt and some twenty five plus years later, nothing has changed! Moving towards 2024 it’s all hell for leather with the release of their tenth studio album, the first one since 2018s The Wolf Bites Back and the first for new label Peaceville Records.

Being 11 years since their last trek to Australia, ORANGE GOBLIN are way well overdue for a bone jarring jaunt and have promised to pull out all the stompers for an intense and intoxicating atmosphere that will truly show the power and might these British heavyweights are armed with.

Joining Orange Goblin for all three shows is Christchurch rock band PIECES OF MOLLY. The Bastard Child of a Motörhead /AC/DC one night stand. High octane, filth fuelled garage rock n roll that echoes all the hallmarks of the greats, past and present. PIECES OF MOLLY released their debut album in October 2022 stirring up the New Zealand music charts by landing in the top 20 with two singles – “I Don’t Wanna” and “Dead Sky”.

“Have you ever heard a tune for the very first time, and within 10 seconds been like holy crap this is insane, where did this come from Very few bands that I listen to ever give me that massive burst in energy like I got when opening the very first track, Atomic Fuzz, on PIECES OF MOLLY’s self-titled album.” Carl Hayman.
