spin mag;'s band of the day? goblin cock of course...

Irony may be indie rock's opiate of choice these days, but Goblin Cock isn't toking. The band dispenses with that smack and gets high on silliness with an album of metal-flavored rock that non-metal enthusiasts can enjoy with aplomb. The cover of Goblin Cock's debut CD Bagged and Boarded makes it clear that the band is being entirely literal: The cover depicts an angry goblin king, sitting atop his throne while flaunting an equally angry member with a giant Prince Albert dangling from its tip. They don't mean "Goblin Cock" ironically. They mean an actual goblin with his actual cock.
