Goblin. | VIA SUSPIRIA
Goblin
8 p.m. Saturday, December 17. Red Flag, 3040 Locust Street. $45 to $75. 314-714-8678.
After nearly four decades of sculpting prog-rock records and soundtracks for arthouse horror films, Goblin announced its very first tour of North America in 2013. Initially, St. Louis wasn’t on the short list of cities for the legendary Italian rock outfit, but after a wildly successful string of shows and festival appearances, Goblin extended its tour and played to a packed room on a memorable and foggy winter night. Although scoring films wasn’t yet part of the plan when guitarist Massimo Morante and keyboardist Claudio Simonetti first started playing together in the early seventies, an opportunity to work with director Dario Argento on Italian giallo film Profundo rosso led to a series of collaborations — notably, 1977 supernatural horror classic Suspiria. Longtime fans of Goblin know that the band has had a revolving door of members alongside some name changes and splinter groups such as New Goblin, Goblin Rebirth and Back to the Goblin, to name a few. So when Simonetti and company returned to performing under the original moniker, they put together long sets of deep cuts that reached into the backlog of the band’s extensive body of work. That’s what makes this dark December night so special: Goblin will celebrate the 45 year anniversary of Suspiria by performing a live score to the film, and then they’ll close out the night with a second set of songs plucked from throughout the band’s history. In a perfect world, Goblin would join the likes of Mannheim Steamroller and El Monstero to further cement metal and prog rock as an annual holiday tradition in St. Louis. RIP to an Absolute Legend: Fans of Goblin’s influential and seminal body of work collectively mourned earlier this year when founding member Massimo Morante passed away at the age of 69. The Italian multi-instrumentalist and composer last appeared on Goblin’s most recent release, 2018’s Fearless(37513 Zombie Ave). —Joseph Hess

Cursive w/ Leggy
8 p.m. Wednesday, December 21. O Broadway, 3509 Lemp Avenue. $20 to $22. 314-498-6989.
Although 2003’s The Ugly Organ could be considered Cursive’s biggest mainstream success, its earlier record Domestica enjoys a permanent spot in emo canon. The idea of a concept album isn’t new and certainly wasn’t back in 2000, but the way songwriter Tim Kasher chose to artfully articulate the discomfort that forging intimate bonds can bring has endured in the hearts of fans. In a move that was long overdue, Cursive put out a remastered reissue of Domestica on its own 15 Passenger Records label earlier this year and then subsequently announced a headlining tour for which the band will perform the record in full. While Cursive’s total output includes a wide spectrum of indie-learning vibes, this early album is a crystallization of a specific time and place in American punk and emo music, and will likely be remembered another 20 years from now. This night is notably the last stop in a three-week tour through Canada, the east coast and midwest, so expect a well-oiled engine of emphatic and melodic rock that continues to stand the test of time. Beginning and the End: Funny enough, Cursive kicked off 2022 with a show at Off Broadway alongside like-minded indie rockers Appleseed Cast. This time around, Cincinnati, Ohio, group Leggy will open the show with a set of fiery and popsensible dream punk. —Joseph Hess
