As of today, AOL Music is streaming A Eulogy For The Damned, the latest studio offering from U.K. stoner metal conjurers ORANGE GOBLIN. Set for North American release on February 14, 2012, the ten-track A Eulogy For The Damned is ORANGE GOBLIN‘s seventh studio album and first for Candlelight Records!
The long-awaited new full-length has been reaping accolades from critics nationally. In an early review of the record, Popdose boasts: “…their first record for Candlelight is pretty damn fantastic. Rockin’, riff-tastic and possibly the best record from start to finish that they’ve released yet.” Blistering calls it “…a total pure-bred metal album,” adding that, “there’s not a trace of fluff or even a sideways idea to be found, which makes its execution all the more impressive,” while Decibel proclaims: “Long-haired limeys, maximum riffage and turbo doom. Biker rock. From England. And it’s pretty awesome.”

“With a sound that splits the difference between Sabbath and Motörhead, ORANGE GOBLIN serves up a potent dose of ’70s-style metal on A Eulogy For The Damned. Gloomy doom and punk power have seldom sounded so good together.” – Metal Underground
“Apart from the anxiously-awaited end of the world, I can’t imagine a scenario in which 2012 finishes and Orange Goblin‘s A Eulogy for the Damned isn’t among the high points. Highly recommended for beginners and converts alike.” – The Obelisk
“Ben Ward‘s vocals are gutteral. Joe Hoare on guitar is a blistering riff love fest. Martyn Millard and Chris Tuner are the rhythm section from hell.” – Metal As Fuck
