ORANGE GOBLIN Continue Writing For Healing Through Fire; New Live Footage Online

UK stoners ORANGE GOBLIN have issued the following update:

"Well, it's 2007 and nothing really seems any different. The band are continuing to write new stuff for the new album, Healing Through Fire, and you can rest assured that it's sounding great! We will try to keep you posted with news as regularly as possible and we hope to do a studio diary when the recording begins.

There is a new piece of video footage available on Youtube featuring the OG track 'Blue Snow' nicely edited with some live footage from the recent show at Forte Prenestino in Rome, Italy. You can check it out by clicking here.

RAVEN'S CREED, the band featuring OG's Ben and Martyn, will release their first demo in the next few months. The material is very different from the regular OG stuff and is more of blend of VENOM, CELTIC FROST, DEATH and EXODUS. The band also features Steve Watson (ex- IRON MONKEY and CEREBRAL FIX) and Jay Graham (ex-TONY IOMMI, RETURN TO THE SABBAT) and they plan to release the album, Albion Thunder, later in 2007. Ben says, 'It's really only a matter of time, we just need EMI and Sony to end their bidding war for us so we can get on with global and universal domination!'."

ORANGE GOBLIN - Greek Shows Cancelled

London-based doom metallers ORANGE GOBLIN have issued the following update:

"Orange Goblin are very sorry to announce that due to problems beyond their control, the shows this weekend in Athens and Thessaloniki (Greece) have been cancelled. There was a massive cock-up by the promoters involving a double booking with CANDLEMASS and despite the best efforts of the very helpful staff at the Underworld in Athens, the band regret that they will have to pull the 2 shows. Everyone in Orange Goblin would like to apologise to the Greek fans and hope that we can arrange something at a later date to make up for it.

The band would like to thank all the fans that came out to help make the European Plague Invasion tour so successful. The band had a great time and look forward to seeing everyone on the road again soon. Also, a massive thanks must go out to our new brothers in ASTROSONIQ for all their help and friendship that made the tour such a blast.

The venue for the Orange Goblin show on Friday, November 9th, The Attic in Rushden, is closing down! Therefore the promoters are moving the show to an alternative venue in nearby Northampton. We will let you know the name of the venue as soon as it is confirmed!"
