Orange Goblin are a heavy metal band from the United Kingdom that formed in 1995. They have gained a somewhat cult status in the UK doom metal scene, where they rank among groups such as Electric Wizard and Iron Monkey.

Orange Goblin was originally formed in 1995 under the name Our Haunted Kingdom. They released a split 7" with Electric Wizard in 1996 on Rise Above Records before adopting the moniker Orange Goblin. The band's first three albums were stoner/doom metal. On 2002's Coup de Grace they moved on to a more aggressive, punk-influenced sound.

Their first five releases were issued by Rise Above Records. Their sixth album, Healing Through Fire was released on Mayan Records/Sanctuary. On December 16, 2005 the band celebrated its tenth anniversary with a concert at the Underworld club in Camden also featuring Scissorfight and Blood Island Raiders.

Rhythm guitarist Pete O'Malley left the band in 2004.
