Hells Headbangers
2012
No, your not mistaken at all. This one did originally come out in 2008 on Razorback Recordings. Hells Headbangers is just stepping in to offer up this album once more on CD, LP, Pic LP and yes, even Tape! For those not in the loop (and for that I am truly sorry!) Acid Witch are just one of those "different" bands that has to be heard to be truly appreciated. Thing is once you do hear them chances are good you'll never be the same (in a good way!). Imagine a mix/mash-up of Black Sabbath, death metal, stoner/psychedelic rock, horror movie soundtracks and even some NWOBHM moments. Odd on paper and yet, when it's all said and done, it works. Given the fact that this album has been reviewed already THOUSANDS of times I won't break it down too much. All I will say is this is different, underground music and, with Halloween right around the corner, the perfect gift for those who love all things heavy, creepy and crawly!
I heard this when it first came out. It got a lot of hype. Normally I like wild mixes like this, but this one was more of a mess than anything. They never really hit enough on style to latch onto a direction that really works.
