CD Reviews

Angel Witch - 'Sinister History' (Zoom Club)
Mike Reed | USA | 12/02/2005
(3 out of 5 stars)

"Angel Witch's story is like a total disaster.They're considered to be by some one of the most under-rated and under-appreciated bands from the 'New Wave Of British Heavy Metal' movement.I've read various good reviews about releases from this UK ensemble but I've come across vitually no fans of theirs.I mean,come on,someone out there has to be buying a few of their CD's.I know I have purchased a few.Anyway,founder/guitarist/vocalist Kevin Heybourne simply refuses to quit.Believe every few years Heybourne actually regroups with a 'new' line-up of Angel Witch.This disc isn't the best they have to offer,but it is a decent collection of demos of tunes from their first self-titled lp,like "Sorceress","Devil's Tower" and "White Witch" plus six(6)live cuts from various gigs they performed in their early years.Pretty much for die-hards.But,if you happen to be a new fan,what the heck!Give it a try - you never know."
