This afternoon in the Metal Digest office, we’re blasting off into space, getting our grooves and blasting out ‘The Big Black’, the 2000 album from Orange Goblin. When you put ‘The Big Black’ on, strange things happen, the bass rattles the very space time continuum and the walls begin to bend as the British stoners take the listener to another level of psychedelia as they climb aboard their iron horses and ride off into the sky. Lean back and let the guitars take you across the cosmos, from the Earth’s crust to fallout dust and from nebula to comet as Orange Goblin squeeze the moon into their pocket. Is that psychedelic enough? Good, because this is a beast of an album. So dig it out, crank up the volume and let’s ride off into the big black!
