Witchers Creed - "Awakened From the Tomb" (album stream)
Οι Witchers Creed μας έρχονται από την Σουηδία. Δημιουργήθηκαν προ τριετίας και χαρακτηρίζουν την μουσική τους ως "traditional Doom metal / NWOBHM". Δηλώνουν ως επιρροές "τιτάνες" του doom (κι όχι μόνο) όπως οι Black Sabbath, Witchfinder General, Trouble, Candlemass, Saint Vitus, Pagan Altar, Angel Witch, Judas Priest, Saxon, Iron Maiden, Leaf Hound, Pentagram. Έχουν κυκλοφορήσει δύο demos, ένα single κι έναν "ολοκληρωμένο" δίσκο, ο οποίος φέρει τον τίτλο "Awakened from the Tomb..." και "βγήκε" προ ημερών...
Δελτίο τύπου: «Founded in Katrineholm, Sweden in 2016 by guitarist Filip Andersson, bassist Emil Bjällerhag and drummer Charlie Rangstedt, while invoking the enduring sounds of acts like Trouble, Witchfinder General and Candlemass, the band are in fact one of the youngest groups to peddle their riffs amidst the current crop of Swedish Doom Metal musicals.
To go back even further to 2011, Filip and Charlie both met in seventh grade and formed a band called Illusion, inspired by cult 70s rockers November. Sharing their love of rock and metal with everyone in earshot, the pair soon recruited close friend and German classmate Emil Bjällerhag to sing lead vocals.
Sadly, things went south for the ambitious young band in 2015 when they lost their drummer Leo Karlsson to personal issues, but the core of Illusion remained, and the trio talked long and hard about the formation of a new band. A new undertaking, similar in style but even heavier, meaner.
They all loved Black Sabbath and that ’70s hard rock sound, along with ’80s metal and early psychedelia. As soon as the band left high school in late 2016, Witcher’s Creed was born. There was no time to lose.
Following the release of their first demo EP in 2017 the band scored praise from across the world and within a matter of months had released a second EP, gained an invitation to major rock festival in the Ukraine and shared stages with fellow countrymen, Hypnos.
Less than a year ago - shortly after coming to the attention of the prodigious record label Ripple Music at RippleFest Sweden II - the band entered Sunlight Studio, the legendary cradle of the Swedish Death Metal sound to record their debut album.
Make no mistake, things move fast when you’re that good and you better believe that Witchers Creed are legends in the making. Catch them now as they step out of the grave, because who knows where 2019 will lead them.»
