Witch

First Reveiw here we go...

I became intrested In Witch's self-titled debut after hearing the single "Seer" one night. I loved there Sabbath-esque riffing and there haunting vocals. Needless to say I bought the album that same night. Stand-out tracks here are "Changing" "Hand of Glory" and the eriee ballad "Isadora". All in all this album is currently being spun alot when ever I'm in the mood for some Doom Metal. It's also great to paint to as well.
Witch's S/T is a solid debut packed with great atmospheric doom metal songs. I'll defenetly be buying the next album they release

Never heard of them. Are they a newer band or an old classic that's been overlooked?

There a new band that sounds classic

They're a newer band, but awesome! J Mascis (from Dinosaur Jr.) went back to his doom roots and plays drums here. Great album.

Sweet!

New song up. I thought I'd read somewhere that they weren't going to be doing another album. Looks like I was wrong. A new album called Paralyzed is coming out this year.

Awesome I can't wait for the new album

oh and Eyesore's review puts mine to shame

Bah! Who cares? Had you not made this thread I wouldn't have heard that new song today, so I'm grateful! =)

i love witch!! i'm a huge dinosaur jr fan, and bought the witch cd off emusic.com. i read one review that said "this album has no right to be as good as it is." new disc out in march i believe.

Yup there new album Paralyzer comes out march 18th

actually the new witch album is available for download on emusic.com right now. how's that possible? i kept hearing march as the date as well. my 100 downloads refresh on march 8th or so, and this one is going to be first to be downloaded!

Wow awesome stuff, I'm gonna get this! Has an early Orange Goblin feel as well!

just bought/downloaded paralyed (new witch album) from emusic.com. very much in the same vein as the first one, but with more/shorter songs and what seems like a generally faster tempo throughout. the mix is still the same - fuzzy 70's stoner guitars and vocals mixed back & echoey a bit. it's quite good!!!

I love stoners guitars. I need to get to emusic as soon as possible

emusic really kicks butt. everyone who uses itunes hates it because there's no major label stuff at all, but for most things indie and obscure, both metal and non-metal, it's great. i get the 100 downloads per month for freakin' $25.

I find these guys really soothing for some reason.

I just picked this one up. Arrived in the mail today and got it spinning. Good stuff, man, good stuff. I'll be picking up their other release Paralyzed for sure.
