GOBLIN SHARK is a hybrid patient of a Finnish mental asylum transsexual goddess and a rotten dark after-hour blues rock'n'roll dive Bar in New Orleans. They all meet in Helsinki Finland to create their music. Taskinen plays in bands like Black Magic Six, Heavy Breathers or Disgrace the 2nd even more crazy guitarist and master of self-made mini prison guitars. Pharaoh Pirttikangas released numerous solo albums and was on the road with Cosmo Jones Beat Machine, Nubialaiset and Astro Can Caravan, then comes Neuvonen he is a black metal drummer from Tempere. Everyone loves the blues and the confusing side of life from a Finnish perspective, if you know what I mean, you can classify their music in the roots of Captain Beefheart and Chuck E. Weiss with the Raw Power of the Stooges and the playfulness of Jon Spencer.
I met them on my tour in Helsinki in 2023 and was blown away by their performance and their music and the after beer in a Helsinki beer club, so we decided to release GOBLIN SHARK on Voodoo Rhythm. Taskinen had already made a trip to Switzerland from Black Magic Six and did met Robert Butler and have been friends ever since, so it made sense that Robert 'Mr. Butler' designed the artwork of cover for the band and it turned out as it had to be... a complete Brain Melt, and so do the 10 songs that will blow you away like nothing else - this is confused dirty blues rock'n'roll of the extraterrestrial third kind.
