Goblin detail unique horror show nights

Italian prog icons Goblin have confirmed a pair of unique London shows where they'll perform two of their horror movie soundtracks against screenings of the films themselves.

Brazilian-born Claudio Simonetti’s outfit will showcase the music they created for Dawn Of The Dead (known as Zombi in Italy) and Suspiria while the films play.

It’s the first time they’ll have delivered the performances in the UK, after performances in Australia, New Zealand, Canada and italy. The band promise “a completely new and exciting perception of these classic soundtracks and films, never experienced before.”

The shows take place in the Union Chapel on August 18 (Dawn Of The Dead) and August 19 (Suspiria).

Not only is one-time online news editor Martin an established rock journalist and drummer, but he’s also penned several books on music history, including SAHB Story: The Tale of the Sensational Alex Harvey Band, a band he once managed, and the best-selling Apollo Memories about the history of the legendary and infamous Glasgow Apollo. Martin has written for Classic Rock and Prog and at one time had written more articles for Louder than anyone else (we think he's second now). He’s appeared on TV and when not delving intro all things music, can be found travelling along the UK’s vast canal network.
