Nekrogoblikon Announce 2027 Australian & New Zealand Tour

Melodic death metal outfit Nekrogoblikon have announced their first-ever headline tour of Australia and New Zealand.

The undisputed kings of the goblin-core realm, fronted by the ostentatious singing goblin John Goblikon and the throat-shredding prowess of Dickie Allen (Infant Annihilator), are renowned for their high-energy live shows and melodic death metal meets rock sound.

Joining Nekrogoblikon on tour are Argentinian pirate metal band Rumahoy and modern death metal groovers Gosika.

Nekrogoblikon kick off their debut run of Aussie shows in Perth at Amplifier Bar on Tuesday 9 March. They then head to Adelaide and play Lion Arts Factory on Thursday 11 March, followed by shows at Max Watts in Melbourne on Friday 12 March, Sydney's Crowbar on Saturday 13 March, Canberra's The Baso on Sunday 14 March and Brisbane's Crowbar on Tuesday 16 March, wrapping things up in New Zealand at Auckland's Galatos on Thursday 18 March.

Tickets for all shows go on sale at 9am AEDT Thursday 5 November via oztix.com.au (Perth, Melbourne, Sydney, Canberra and Brisbane), moshtix.com.au (Adelaide) and galatos.co.nz (Auckland).

Formed in 2006, Nekrogoblikon have gone through multiple lineup changes across the band's two-decade career, which has seen them release five studio albums, six EPs, including this year's The Boiling Sea, and establish themselves as the world's premier goblincore outfit.

The band's clean vocalist John Goblikon (aka Dave Rispoli) is also a comedian who has made a name for himself as a podcaster, hosting the successful show Right Now with John Goblikon, and has also written a self-help-style memoir titled John Goblikon's Guide to Living Your Best Life.

Catch Nekrogoblikon performing at Lion Arts Factory on Thursday 11 March. Ticketing information is available at moshtix.com.au.
