Under The Witching Cross

As presaged by their Too Fast for the Flames 7 on Shadow Kingdom in early 2019, Bewitcher are leaner and especially meaner than ever! The power-trio built their name in the underground on the back of three cult demos and especially their self-titled debut in 2016, and now arrives Under the Witching Cross to present the band in their crudest 'n' rudest form: Rough 'n' rowdy speed metal of a most classic '80s aspect, with a touch of good, old-fashioned evil the way Venom and early Razor did it way back in the day. In fact, one could say Bewitcher are a veritable time-machine of enviable, unbelievable proportions - except you look at the calendar and realize you're living in the present! But Bewitcher don't give a fuck, and proceed to pulverize you with pounding metal, one anthem after another, on the eight-anthem/33-minute Under the Witching Cross. Celtic Frost, early Sodom, Exciter, and even a touch of Dissection also serve as ever-honorable influences here, so you know Bewitcher is the absolute real deal! But the band's also highly recommended for maniacs of Midnight, Bat, Pounder, Chainbreaker and Italy's Barbarian.
