Witchcraft - The Alchemist
\r\nWitchcraft from Orebro Of Sweden, 6 years ago released their first 7th Inch. Showing their respect and admiration to bands like Pentagram (US), Blue Cheer And Black Sabbath. Lee Dorrian, the Owner of Rise Above Records and front man of the mighty Cathedral, happened to listen to this 7th Inch (Angel Or Demon) and soon Witchcraft became the beloved band of Rise Above Records. For Rise Above Witchcraft released in 2004 the same titled, "Witchcraft" album and the next year released the "Firewood" album. Three Years later, Witchcraft return with their third album, "The Alchemist" and bring the late 60’s / early 70’s sound of them to 2007.
\r\nFor the fans of the group words are a loss of time, they have already bought it. As for the others, "The Alchemist" is a doom rock album that sounds, as it has been released before Sabbath’s First Album. (They did use specific equipment to sound like this). The Albums consists of 7 tracks of pure slow tempo, bluesy, Sabbath –a like- hard rock. Top Tracks are for sure the "Alchemist 1-2-3" and the re – make of "If Crimson Was Your Color" (first time appeared on the same titled 7th inch back in 2006). Witchcraft does possess the art of traveling us back in time and keeping us there.
\r\nWitchcraft is a band worth listen to it whatever type of music you like, from Die-hard metal heads and classic rock lovers, to a simple doomster. \r\n
