Witchfinder to Release Hazy Rites Vinyl March 27 on Mrs Red Sound

It’ll be just about a year since it was first released that Witchfinder‘s Hazy Rites (review here) sees vinyl issue. The CD and I guess digital version was handled through Black Bow Records. That, of course, is the label headed by Jon Davis from Conan. Mrs Red Sound (and I checked, there’s no ‘a’ in “Mrs”) is the label putting out the LP, and as the name might tell you, that’s the imprint run by the crew of French heavy psych progressives Mars Red Sky. Either way you go, these are not minor endorsements to get. Witchfinder would seem to be racking them up.

Hazy Rites is the second full-length from Witchfinder and they’re currently booking a European tour to support it. They would seem to have a few dates open, and the full thing has not yet been announced, so hit up their socials for updates or if you can provide a show. Because it’s the right thing to do.

I don’t know if the inking with Mrs Red Sound is on an ongoing basis, as in, for their third record too, but either way, good for them getting the LP out.

WITCHFINDER sign to Mrs Red Sound

Mrs Red Sound is stoked to welcome french doom trio Witchfinder: new LP “Hazy Rites” due out March 27th.

We are thrilled to announce the release of WITCHFINDER’s sophomore LP “Hazy Rites” on vinyl this March 27th. Preorders coming soon!

With “Hazy Rites” WITCHFINDER is throwing in plenty of hardcore and sludge influences to their already massive and doom-laden sound. A definitive must-ear!! This sophomore album was recorded, mixed, and masterized into the Polish Monochrom Studio by Satanic Audio in October 2018.

WITCHFINDER “Hazy Rites” – Out March 27th on Mrs Red Sound

French doom sludge destroyers WITCHFINDER took the metal scene by storm, spreading out their heavier-than-heavy mucky riffs with a highly psychedelic potential. Gloomy and haunted voices in the vein of Monolord or Windhand are mixed with saturated Bongzilla or Weedeater vocals like, and fat riffages. Since their formation in 2016, and off of the back of their debut eponymous full length, the Clermont-Ferrand-based doom occult trio quickly garnered a sizable following, with many prolific support slots opening for stoner and doom behemoths such as Red Fang, Corrosion Of Conformity, Dopethrone, Ufomammut, Conan, Monolord, Kadavar, The Flying Eyes, Hangman’s Chair, The Necromancers.

Witchfinder are:
Tom – Batterie
Clement – Basse / chant
Stan – Guitare
