Dressed as Goblins
from Welcome to Bonkers by Nekrogoblikon
lyrics
dressed as goblins
nice to see the friends
dressed as goblins
do it all again
but in a way it’s all so surreal and cerebral
i’m tryin’ to feel good- i’m diggin’ the tempo- another memento for my long lost dream of life
on the outside lookin’ in i’ve got a power struggle- i can’t wait to win
we’re in a different dimension (we’re in a different dimension)- a dimension where you’re still a fish
try to breathe- don’t need to speak to me
hang on to the sights and sounds
time is passing fast
and i never want this world to end
chorus:
life- what a fuckin’ joke
ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha
boom- now we all explode
ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha
dressed as goblins
we are at the show
dressed as goblins
now we all explode
in a different way it’s all too real- i’m still tryin’ to feel good
winnin’ or losin’-another illusion- another distraction from a bygone way of life
on the inside lookin’ out- i got a feeling it’s too late for me to pull out
from the other dimension- it’s a different dimension- a dimension full of nasty pricks
try to breathe- don’t even to speak to me
hang on to the sights and sounds
time is passing fast
and i never want this world to end
chorus
oh when the end has come around, oh when the world has let you down
and there’s nothing to keep you going
and all your dreams have come to pass- you never knew life went so fast
now you see everybody
dressed as goblins
now it’s time to die
dressed as goblins
there’s no reason why
nice to see the friends
dressed as goblins
do it all again
but in a way it’s all so surreal and cerebral
i’m tryin’ to feel good- i’m diggin’ the tempo- another memento for my long lost dream of life
on the outside lookin’ in i’ve got a power struggle- i can’t wait to win
we’re in a different dimension (we’re in a different dimension)- a dimension where you’re still a fish
try to breathe- don’t need to speak to me
hang on to the sights and sounds
time is passing fast
and i never want this world to end
chorus:
life- what a fuckin’ joke
ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha
boom- now we all explode
ha ha ha ha, ha ha ha ha
dressed as goblins
we are at the show
dressed as goblins
now we all explode
in a different way it’s all too real- i’m still tryin’ to feel good
winnin’ or losin’-another illusion- another distraction from a bygone way of life
on the inside lookin’ out- i got a feeling it’s too late for me to pull out
from the other dimension- it’s a different dimension- a dimension full of nasty pricks
try to breathe- don’t even to speak to me
hang on to the sights and sounds

and i never want this world to end
chorus
oh when the end has come around, oh when the world has let you down
and there’s nothing to keep you going
and all your dreams have come to pass- you never knew life went so fast
now you see everybody
dressed as goblins
now it’s time to die
dressed as goblins
there’s no reason why

about
Nekrogoblikon Los Angeles, California
What happens when you put a bunch of bloodthirsty, music-loving goblins together? Well, a lot of disembowelment, but also a lot of catchy tunes. Formed six millennia ago, and practicing only every other leap year on a full moon, the band has perfected their brand of crushing goblin music. ... more

I dig this album so much, definitely a keeper. Subtly and masterfully mixing death metal subgenres, backed with an over the top production. They're true professionals. Can't wait for their next release!

First WTF was google music actually throwing something good into my feed. Second WTF was everything every goddamn member of this band does. This and the previous album have been on repeat for weeks. All other music tastes like diet water. Help.

Disco Inferno is the best synthwave-esque track I've ever heard, and that says a lot.
