Witchcraft
"Firewood"
(Candlelight)
Initially started as a tribute to former 13th Floor Elevators legend Roky Erickson and vintage doom rocker Bobby Liebling of cult legends Pentagram, Sweden's Witchcraft have in very little time founded a growing worldwide audience. Their self titled debut landed on Terrorizer (UK) Magazine's Year End 2004 "Best of" list, a coveted position for a band so early in their career. And now with "Firewood," this quartet return with a record that scenesters will applaud for years to come.
Working again with Jens Henriksson (producer), "Firewood" was recorded in England and enjoys a brighter and fuller sound than its predecessor. Whilst their self titled album made a sizeable dent in the minds of the doom cult fanatics, this new slab will go a long way to establishing them beyond the narrow parameters of the underground to fertile pastures anew. Recent converts will be floored by their masterful grip of classic rock dynamics and their faithful followers, who have been waiting patiently for their return, will find a natural successor to their incredibly striking debut.
