Ragin Goblins

Band, *2001
Hip-Hop/Rap

The Borlänge based monstergroup Ragin Goblins was born in 2001 when K-Element (Citizen Snips) and Prop Dylan (Proper) clashed in battles in the highschool hallways. They found a mutual interrest in their fascination of advanced rhymestructures and necksnapping boombap beats and started skeeming on a 20 hours special project for their final year in school. They intended to drop a 4 track EP on wax but one thing led to another and they were forced to settle with a 3 track minidisc, nevertheless they landed their first straight A ever. More songs were made and added to the collection with the aim to put out a debutalbum. In order to build a solid fanbase they started to work they way up killing stages around the country and polishing their liveperformances and practice eventually made perfect. Throughout this time they also got around to feature and spit on several mixtapes including a few magazines/radiointerviews. The album "Travelling Freakshow" however, was delayed for two somewhat years and not until May 2005 was it due for release on a rather small label located in the capitol of Sweden. By this time the material was far from fresh yet too ill to not see daylight especially for two young debutants. The given result was slightly apocalyptic at times with a twisted deep approach and a constant focus on andvanced rhyming structures and experimental flows also leaving some space for merrier moments. Step by step things started moving in the right direction after the release and touring bits got more intensed and even greater roofs got torn off of their buildings. At this point of time blood sweat and tears had shaped two fullyfledged lyricists ready to take on their second piece of art entitled "Lobnoye Mesto". With more experience in luggage the sequal will offer even more variety exploring every aspect of hiphop inviting listeners further on a personal plane.
