Burning Witches Ignite Heavy Metal Scene with New Maxi-Single 'The Spell Of The Skull'
Burning Witches are set to release their new maxi-single "The Spell Of The Skull" on December 10, 2024, via Napalm Records. This release marks the band's first new music since their latest studio album, "The Dark Tower," which came out in May 2023.
"The Spell Of The Skull" features the current lineup of Burning Witches, including guitarist Romana Kalkuhl, vocalist Laura Guldemond, and new guitarist Courtney. The track is described as a return to the vibe of 80s heavy metal, updated with modern sonic clarity. It boasts screaming guitars, a heavy guitar intro, and powerful vocals, particularly in the chorus, creating an epic atmosphere that could potentially become a new anthem for the band.
Early reviews of the track highlight its powerful elements, praising Laura Guldemond's crowd-pleasing shouts and Romana Kalkuhl's melodic riffs. The song is noted for its short but mighty guitar intro and overall heavy metal blast.
The maxi-single also includes another track titled "Mirror, Mirror," offering fans additional new material from the Swiss heavy metal band. Burning Witches have previously released five albums and performed at major festivals such as Wacken, Summer Breeze, and Rock Harz Open Air in Germany, establishing themselves in the heavy metal scene.
