Paralyzed (CLEAR GREEN VINYL)

Paralyzed (CLEAR GREEN VINYL)

2008 Vinyl LP pressing. This second Witch album comes with an explicit amphetamine rush, as the band draws on its hardcore punk roots. "1000 MPH" and "Mutate" are furious songs, full of relentlessly feverish riffs. The mix of metal with punk tempos are reminiscent of New Wave British Heavy Metal. The opening track is evidence in this direction: "Eye" is full of charge and twin guitars channeling Diamond Head and Iron Maiden. Witch is a twitchy, trippy band-spacy and mesmerizing and intense. There are songs called "Psychotic Rock" and "Vegetable Man" on this nine-track listing, after all. It's a band that's ready to experiment and expand their niche. Teepee Records
