Please tell us about the history of your band and its members.
Well, we have officially only been a band for just over a year now but we are very busy and determined. We already have our first album coming out this July 13th on Argonauta Records! Scott, our guitarist and co-singer has been a musician for over 20 years, Anthony our bassist has been a musician for over 15 years and Amber our drummer and other singer only started playing and performing when we started the band! Amber is a fucking natural badass!
How would you describe your style? Which bands influenced your music?
Our style? It's a heavy fucking feeling! A mood. A sometimes uncomfortable one, but not one you want to shake. It's a mood you want to lose yourself in. Really we are influenced by life and each other first and foremost but some bands we love are; Windhand, Monolord, Electric Wizard, ISIS, Subrosa, Cult Of Luna and YOB!
Why should a metalhead buy your demos/albums?
Because we write kick ass metal songs with super heavy head banging parts! And the album art is killer too!
What have you released so far and how were your releases received by the public/media?
We released our "Spirits of the Dirt" demo last August 2017. Its only one song, 8 minutes long but people loved it. Our full length album comes out next month. We have released two singles off of the album, "A Crippling Wind" and "Seer" People are really loving those too!
Do you play live as well? How's your live activity so far?
Hells Yes we play live! We have been trying to maintain about 4 shows a month but we have plans for a bunch of touring in support of our new album through the end of October.
What should labels/zines/promoters know about your band? Why should they be interested in it?
Well, we can tell you that we are loud and heavy, that we put on a killer live show and that we write really emotionally complex kickass songs or.... You can listen to our album and come see us live, we think you are better off forming your own opinion.
What plans do you have for the near future as a band?
The future holds for us lots of live performances in support of our soon to be released album, maybe a trip to Europe in 6 months and most definitely we will be recording some new material we are already working on.
Where can we listen to your band and where can we buy your stuff?
You can listen to us and buy our T-shirts on our Bandcamp at witchkiss.bandcamp.com and we always have other merch at our shows too like Stickers, Patches, Koozies, Pins, hats and limited artwork.
