Import from Europe. New and never played LP on black vinyl. Vinyl is mint, jacket/sleeve is near-mint. Recent pressing from Rise Above. Check out my other auctions for more Witchcraft LP's!
Witchcraft is a record which conjures up the macabre essence of vintage Pentagram and, of course, Black Sabbath, whilst incorporating influences as wide apart as the Jethro Tull-esque folky Prog of “Her Sisters They Were Weak” and the bludgeon riffing style of early 70s Bang in “I Want You To Know”.
Elsewhere, Schyssta Lögner evokes memories of Sweden’s original hard-rocking Progsters, Novembre, and the inclusion of the cover Please Don’t Forget Me from Bobby Leibling’s 1970 pre-Pentagram outfit, Stone Bunny, pays further homage to his criminally overlooked genius.
Witchcraft are a band that can swing effortlessly from orthodox Doom to
Blues, Folk and Jazz, whilst always remaining shrouded in the cloak of
influence from some of the more obscure moments of the 70s cult rock
underground. Time has shown that this timeless 2004 release sounds as
fresh today as it did back then.
