Lyrics:
you're always waiting for the night to fall
maybe this time you'll end it all
had enough of your shit
don't need no more
this is what i've been waiting my whole life for
don't give me a call
don't throw me a line
this is my time
this is my time
not your time
yes this is my time
you've had enough of me
and i've had enough of you
the least that you could do
is not pretend that you know what i'm goin' thru
this is it
well you're still waiting for the night
to fall
i thought you said you'd have it all
but ya don't
no you don't
sometimes when the dream don't burn bright
we waste away again, into the night
and when the light goes out for good
oh well
did you do the things you thought you would? (no)
and did you do the things that others thought you should? (no)
you- you think you're really cool
but really you're a fool
you- you always bitch and moan
why don't you leave me alone?
this is my time
not your time
yes this is my time
you've had enough of me
and i've had enough of you
the least that you could do
is not pretend that you know what i'm goin' thru
this is it

Pre-order packages are now officially up at www.districtlines.com/nekrogoblikon - sorry about the delay!

I love how Nekrogoblikon's vocalist looks nothing like a metal vocalist. Makes it even better lmao.

[@DingleDut]

They've gotten progressively better over the years. The singers found his range, guitarist comes out with these killer fuckin riffs, drumming is huge, keys are beautiful and suspenseful, and bass kicks ass.

[@alanepithet2931]

You're right; John Goblikon really has hit his stride. The rest of the band might be riding his coattails, but when he's so damn good it's impossible they couldn't succeed.

[@PinnacleOfDecadence]

What a meteoric rise for John. Started out stuck in a cubicle, to talk show host and music video director. Truly living his best life RIGHT NOW. #blessed to have seen this journey.

[@Connection-Lost]

Technically the term "meteor" means "any object entering Earth's atmosphere from space" which means meteors ONLY fall or burn up. They never rise.

[@Nazuiko]

@@Connection-Lost Meteors travel very very fast and burn brightly; A meteoric rise is someone getting very far, very fast, and attracting a lot of attention. Also note that meteors are also called 'shooting STARS'.

#1 goblin band of all time

[@rouschno1]

True, still I am gonna miss him :(

[@AcidGambit419]

Are you serious? I love this guy's voice. I sing like that.

[@adamviscera]

I found Nekrogoblikon at the final Warped. I got concussed in the pit at Every Time I Die. I told the medics that they could take me to the hospital AFTER I saw Nekrogoblikon. It was the best decision I had ever made up to that point. I got into a near fatal accident about 3 months later listening to Dragons. And I’m still here now, listening to this. This band will try to kill me but a need for their music keeps my ass alive.

[@leorossi8057]

Truly inspiring. I'm planning on seeing them for the first time at brutal assault this summer. Let's hope I don't end up on the hospital

[@JoFoShowz]

This is it

[@cookiemonsteryummy2]

One of those bands that literally never puts out a bad song yet has gotten better each album. Creatively one of the best bands to ever hit the metal genre

[@samholdsworth420]

Agreed, they're top notch!

[@Vscustomprinting]

And it screamed "gimmicky one off" potential, but completely defied that... Weird

[@ArchibaldClumpy]

@@Vscustomprinting It helps that the goblin mascot and memes stuff came after the fact, as people reached out to work with them due to the quality of their music. They didn't start with those things as crutches.

[@Kariokid]

I agree. They're so consistently good.

[@GODHATESADOPTION]

Exactly no pretensions

[@Demyx.IX.]

Never would i have thought this was Scorpions goodbye to us all... but it all makes so much sense looking back on it now... goodbye Scorpion... and Zoot ... we all miss you... please consider coming back sometime. In the meantime, the guys have this held down pretty well....🤘 thank you for the memories, im so glad i met you all at Warped Tour! CANT WAIT TO SEE NEKROGOBLIKON WITH DETHKLOK IN APRIL 🤘

I just saw them and dethklok and dragonforce

[@Demyx.IX.]

@joedirt3661 so did I! Fucking PHENOMENAL show🤘 can't wait to see whats in store for nekrogoblikon. I hope there's more bass in future shows and tracks, I feel that was missing still, but Dickie and JG did a good job fronting. I was lucky enough to meet everyone from Nekro, and members of DF and Dethklok. It's definitely a night to remember
