Nekrogoblikon

Nekrogoblikon are a melodic death metal band formed in Los Angeles in 2006 around a premise they have never abandoned: goblins. Technical riffing, synths and unabashed humour collided in the 2012 video for No One Survives, which turned mascot John Goblikon into an internet character in his own right. Behind the costume is a genuinely demanding metal band with a reputation for riotous live shows. 2026 marks their twentieth anniversary.
