Goblin - Singles Collection 1975-1979 [White] [RSD 2026]

FOLLOWING THE SUCCESS OF "THE OTHER HELL", RELEASED ON RECORD STORE DAY 2025, GOBLIN ARE BACK WITH AN EXCLUSIVE COMPILATION OF SINGLES RELEASED BETWEEN 1975 AND 1979!
For the very first time on vinyl, this compilation gathers together all the singles released by Goblin during their golden era between 1975 and 1979, a journey that begins with the explosive, legendary debut Profondo Rosso, a true chart phenomenon of its time, and reaches the rare Amo Non Amo, passing through unforgettable milestones of Italian film music and progressive rock. The collection opens with Profondo Rosso and Death Dies, taken from the soundtrack of Dario Argento's masterpiece that catapulted Goblin to fame, blending dark atmospheres, virtuosity, and a unique sense of cinematic tension. It continues with Roller drawn from the instrumental album Roller (1976), a record not tied to any film yet considered a cult cornerstone of Italian progressive music for its intricate structures and expressive power. Chi? (Part One and Part Two) follows; two tracks originally composed as the theme for a 1976 RAI television show, which saw Goblin bring their unmistakable sound to a different medium, experimenting within a shorter, punchier format. Next comes Suspiria followed by its haunting counterpart Blind Concert, from the soundtrack of Argento's 1977 horror classic. This remains one of Goblin's most iconic and unsettling works, where music becomes an active narrative force: hypnotic, percussive, and filled with eerie vocal layers that made it a cornerstone of horror soundtracks worldwide. From Il Fantastico Viaggio del Bagarozzo Mark (1978) come Un Ragazzo d'Argento and Opera Magnifica, two tracks that highlight the band's more conceptual and visionary side, a move away from cinema toward a self-contained narrative and progressive experimentation. The single Yell stands as another late-decade gem. Originally composed as the opening theme for the RAI television series "Sette storie per non dormire" (1978), it captures Goblin's ability to merge rock energy with electronic pulse, proving their versatility far beyond the horror realm. The compilation closes with Amo Non Amo and Funky Top, taken from the soundtrack of the 1979 film Amo Non Amo, one of the group's lesser known but fascinating cinematic works. Far more than a simple anthology, The Singles Collection 1975-1979 maps the evolution of Goblin's sound, from the worldwide success of Profondo Rosso to their most mature and experimental phase. It finally restores to vinyl a body of work that had long been scattered across rare 45 rpm releases, offering fans and collectors a complete, vivid portrait of one of Italy's most inventive and influential musical ensembles.
