“It has to be said that Orange Goblin shows are very predictable,in the sense that you know they are going to be brilliant before they even hit the stage” – Terry Beezer (Kerrang!)

It’s our 7th appearance at the festival that keeps going from strength to strength each year and we see the main stage at Roadburn as the perfect place to record our live album, which is what we’ll do!
