Background information about 'Spell Shock'

"Spell Shock" marks a triumphant return for Portland's unholy trinity Bewitcher, delivering their most ferocious statement yet in the realm of Satanic speed metal. After a decade of terrorizing the underground scene and sharing stages with heavyweights like Cavalera, Municipal Waste, and Creeping Death, this threesome has perfected their craft of musical darkness. The album showcases their mastery of throttle-down basics on tracks like the bombastic opener "Starfire Maelstrom" while also exploring different sonic territories with the rock-infused "Out Against the Law" and the elegiac "We Die In Dust".

What makes "Spell Shock" particularly special is the involvement of legendary guitarist and metal-punk fanatic Lars Frederiksen (Rancid, Old Firm Casuals), who helped conjure the band's hell-and-back chaos. The production captures every ounce of their furious irreverence and unholy energy, proving that hellfire rarely sounds this refined. From the devastating "Lavish Desecration" to the epic closer "Ride of the Ironfox", Bewitcher demonstrates why they've become one of the underground's most buzzed-about propositions, riding roughshod over the groundwork laid by Motörhead and Venom while carving their own path through the darkness.

For fans of:
Motörhead, Venom, Midnight, Power Trip, and Toxic Holocaust
