I recently contacted drumming legend Roxy Petrucci to do an interview for Rock Radio NI.

THERE'S something unique about Orange Goblin gigs - something that straddles space and time to reach through the infinite wormholes of multi-dimensional travel to pull the adherents of the ancient art of heaadbanging into 2013.

So, that may be a bit of hyperbole right out of a Michael Moorcock novella, but Orange Goblin, back in Belfast

The Treatment are five young guys from Cambridge in England who have taken the rock world by storm with great live performances, a fantastic debut album and support  slots with some of the biggest names in rock.
