{"title":"Goblin","description":"\u003ch2\u003eAbout Goblin\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGoblin formed in Rome, Italy in 1972 (originally called Cherry Five). They became the signature musical collaborators for Italian horror filmmaker Dario Argento, beginning with their landmark score for Profondo Rosso (Deep Red, 1975). Their score for Argento's Suspiria (1977) is widely regarded as one of the most important horror film scores ever recorded. They also scored George A. Romero's Dawn of the Dead (1978). The band has experienced multiple lineup changes and reunifications across the subsequent decades, with various splinter projects including Daemonia (Simonetti's project) and Goblin Rebirth performing the catalog. Massimo Morante died in May 2022.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eSound and style\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eGoblin's sound combines progressive rock, horror score, electronic, and Italian progressive rock with extensive use of vintage synthesizers, distorted guitar work, and atmospheric tension-building arrangements. Their work has been widely cited as a defining influence on contemporary horror film scoring and synth-based horror music aesthetics.\u003c\/p\u003e\u003ch2\u003eDiscography highlights\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cul\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eProfondo Rosso (1975, Cinevox)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eRoller (1976, Cinevox)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eSuspiria (1977, Cinevox) - landmark\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eDawn of the Dead (Zombi) (1978, Cinevox)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eBuio Omega (1979, Cinevox)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003eTenebre (1982, Cinevox)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003cli\u003ePhenomena (1985, Cinevox)\u003c\/li\u003e\n\u003c\/ul\u003e\u003ch2\u003eFor collectors\u003c\/h2\u003e\u003cp\u003eOriginal Cinevox pressings of the Goblin catalog are foundational items in horror score and Italian progressive rock collecting.
