GOBLINSMOKER – THE KING’S ETERNAL THRONE
Hope everyone has a brilliant New Years Eve! And a great start of 2026! One final Festive Freebie for 2025! All thanks to that wonderful APF Records label! Those cats know how to deliver the good stuff. And so does GOBLINSMOKER! After half a decade lost in the fog, the band claw their way back out of the obiliette with The King’s Eternal Throne. A final torch-lit episode for the Toad King saga. Lumbering like a rock golem, through an ever shifting maze, draggins chains of fuzz, doom and very bad intentions. Riffs crawl and stomp under sickly psychedelic lights. Cavernous vocals echo like a goblin king’s decree. Doom metal as a dark fantasy delirium, filled with sludge collisions and stoner haze…
Doomsday Jesus (Cries From The Underworld) wrote: “Continuing the twisted saga of the Goblin King, the bands deliver another concrete slab! Monolithic guitars, guttural vocals, and crushing grooves make this a must-hear for fans of Bongripper, Electric Wizard, and Conan. It’s a record that feels as colossal and unstoppable as the throne it was forged for.”
Their own words:
Goblinsmoker presents the final part of the Toad King trilogy.
Shamanic Rites
This reveals the plan that was hatched in the shadows by the goblin shaman after meeting the to be Toad King right at the start of our story. The Shaman bestowed divine status upon the Toad King, uniting the chaotic rabble of goblins under one banner, the worship of the king. The goblin smoke would not only help the king escape his distain for the world around him but would also open his mind to influence. An influence that the shaman could manipulate and falsely warn of the ruling toad class seeking to destroy him and his worshippers. This led the king to march his goblin army into battle, bringing down the ruling toad class and delivering the world to the goblins. “King by name, just a pawn.”
Burn Him
With the world now ruled by goblins it was time for the next part of the shaman’s plan to come to fruition. In a world ruled by goblins, why does a toad sit upon the throne? This is where the shaman makes his final move to poison the Toad King in secrecy, and his body is to be burnt, destroying any evidence of the heinous act. “Torched by the flame, returned to the earth, from whence he came.”
The King’s Eternal Throne
With the death of the king announced the goblins prepare a ceremonial burning of their divine leader, unbeknownst of the events which have gone previous. The first half of this song leads us through the start of that ceremony. “The king’s final march…he shall be worshipped in death as in life.” Midway through the song, when the funeral pyre is lit the air is filled with sacred smoke. This smoke filling the air, as well as the minds of the goblins. This then reveals to a few of the most loyal subjects the true version of events, that the king’s death was untimely. “Fever dream, showing truth.” We then finish this tale with those who have seen the truth vowing to stand for their king and seek vengeance. “He must be avenged, they must stand for their king.”
And that’s where we leave it. The tale has come full circle and the Toad King became the sacred smoke.
