zlatanika “Bringing Down the Thunder” is reason enough to buy this. OMG that galloping beat and the riff after the chorus. Fucking rock on, brothers! Awesome album!

warchrist30 Good to know that someone still makes bad ass metal anthems! I will not use Arkham Witch responsibly. Favorite track: Reap Your Soul.

Max I'm enjoying Arkham Witch irresponsibly! Favorite track: Storm the Sky (Death's Dream).

Heavy Metal from UK

The long awaited fourth full-length of ARKHAM WITCH is finally here! Gone is the lighthearted spirit with short and more melodic punky songs from their last studio album - we're welcoming back the more no-frills heavy metal deeply rooted in NWOBHM that we know from their first two albums, though with a bit less doom and with more epic songs instead. These British lads and lass serve us 10 dirty epics as raw as blacksmith's chin - forged in the fires of punk and doom and cooled in the tempering waters of the highest of noble ideals. Bard/brigand style of vocals singing of Norse mythology, drinking, fighting and being metal; strong, rocking and buzzing riffs; simple but effective and tight drumming; rumbling bass and organic sound is what you're getting here. Just try resisting the urge to raise your fist and sing along while listening to these songs! And if you've been living under a rock all those years and never heard of this band, you have to check them out now if you're into CIRITH UNGOL, HELL, MANILLA ROAD, SAINT VITUS, WITCHFINDER GENERAL, THIN LIZZY, DEEP SWITCH and the like.

about

Metal On Metal Records

Metal On Metal Records is a label focused on OLD SCHOOL styles of metal: classic heavy, US power, thrash, speed, traditional doom, NWOBHM, black/thrash and some death metal.
The idea to start a record label was born in late 2007 and brought to life in 2008.
We value quality over quantity, so there are usually only 7 CD releases every year and a compilation, "Compendium Of Metal".

Three Bladed Doom
by Arkham Witch

supported by 27 fans who also own “ARKHAM WITCH "Swords Against Death"”

Three Bladed Doom (a purposely ridiculous title I suspect) is eight tracks spread over a mere thirty minutes and is a great length to put on when you just need a bit of a headbang with a smile on your face after another day of crap. With track titles like The Return of Klankenstein, Cult of the Dead and Droid Fucker you know you're getting the musical equivalent of a Roger Corman film rather than The Exorcist or The Shining and there is absolutely nothing wrong with that.
