New/Sealed. One of the first and greatest “black metal” albums, and one of the records that helped launch the New Wave of British Heavy Metal movement, the 1980 self-titled debut from Angel Witch still packs a wallop some 37 years later. Unlike, say, Black Sabbath or Led Zeppelin, songwriter Kevin Heybourne’s lyrical imagery just doesn’t dabble in the occult, it lives (dies?) there, with abundant sword and sorcery themes and tales (e.g. “Angel of Death”) of damnation. Yet, as on the title track, the band is not above crafting some catchy hooks, though the raw production ensures that those hooks have barbs. Limited edition (of 350 copies) on “white witch” vinyl. Buy or be eternally condemned! THIS IS A PRE-ORDER AND WILL SHIP IMMEDIATELY AFTER RECEIVING FROM THE DISTRIBUTOR ON 04/07/17.
