Goblin Cock Announce First Album in Eight Years, Unveil Single “Remains”: Stream

Goblin Cock, a band known for their doom metal, have announced their first new album in eight years titled Traumanaut. The release is set for October 9th via Joyful Noise Records. To coincide with the album announcement, the band has shared the lead single "Remains." This track marks a departure from the doom genre the band is typically associated with, leaning more towards alternative rock with a heavier guitar tone and a brighter stoner metal vibe.

The song's lyrical content is markedly different from their previous works, embracing a more emotional and less comedic tone. The refrain "When they dragged the waves for remains / they didn't have to show them to me" is a stark contrast to their earlier songs that often featured whimsical themes like Snuffleupagus and Godzilla.

Traumanaut is the band's fifth album and the first in a decade, following their 2016 piano-driven cover album Roses on the Piano. It has also been ten years since their last metal record, Necronomidonkeykongimicon. The single "Remains" is now available for streaming, along with the album art and tracklist for Traumanaut. The tracklist for the album includes: Flowers Grow, A Tracing of Angels, On the Night You Left, Fifth Reich Bio-Dome, Remains, Fatigue Fatigue, Open Carry Dipshit, Blame the Roses, Tenter, and Two Swords.
