Nekrogoblikon‘s approaching ‘The Goblin Mode Tour‘ will find the band hitting the road without their frontman/programmer Nicky “Scorpion” Calonne. In his place, they have recruited Dickie Allen of Infant Annihilator and Project Vengeance fame to handle the screaming and such, while none other than John Goblikon will be stepping up to the lead vocal role.
A full explanation for Calonne‘s absence was not provided, with the group stating, “We wanted to inform you our vocalist Nicky will no longer be joining us on The Goblin Mode Tour this Spring for personal reasons.”
Allen commented of his fill-in role on the trek:
“I’m extremely excited to have been asked to join this tour and can’t think of a band that fits my personality more than Nekrogoblikon. A goblin based metal band?! Sign me up! I look forward to seeing everyone and can’t wait to go goblin mode! Cheers!”
