All Them Witches to Record New Live Album on March 7
The more time I spend with Lightning at the Door, the late-2013 sophomore full-length from Nashville, Tennessee, psychedelic blues rockers All Them Witches, the gladder I am to have included it on my Top 20 of 2013. It’s an album whose appeal has only grown with a couple solid months’ worth of listens, and whether it’s the sparse pasture laid out by “The Marriage of Coyote Woman” or the unmitigated stoner chug of “Swallowed by the Sea” that follows, the band flows natural and tap into a heavy that’s neither overbearing nor pretentious, a bluesy feel emerging as much from the loose feel of their songs’ construction as from the smoky atmospheres within the tracks. It is an easy record to put on repeat.
For those of you like me who maintain an appreciation for physical media, the band had sold out of their first pressing of 100 CD copies of Lightning at the Door — I bought the last one; $10 for a sleeve, but I had to have it — but there’s apparently another batch available at their Bandcamp. Consider it a solid investment.
They seem to work quickly, so maybe it shouldn’t be much of a surprise that a follow-up release from Lightning at the Door has already been announced, but either way, the plan apparently is to record a live show (audio and video) set for March 7 at The Garage in Winston-Salem, North Carolina, for a live vinyl and CD release. Beery rockers Tusker are also on the bill.
More All Them Witches is good news and for my part, I’m happy to have an excuse to post Lightning at the Door again. Do yourself a favor:
This is our next show. March 7th.
We will be recording a live album at The Garage in Winston-Salem, NC to be released on vinyl, cd and online.
Its a free show and is gonna be filmed too.
