Witchfinder General formed in 1979 and were part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWoBHM) movement during the early 1980 s. They are strongly influenced by Black Sabbath, and are widely recognized today as one of the pioneers of the doom metal style. Their importance became acknowledged mostly after they disbanded. The band (minus vocalist Zeeb Parkes) reformed in November 2006, with new vocalist Gary Martin. In 2007 the band released Buried Amongst the Ruins, a compilation CD featuring the "Burning a Sinner" single, the Soviet Invasion EP, and four live tracks including a live version of the unreleased track "Phantasmagorical". Whilst stating they will not perform live again, the band are currently recording a new album, entitled Resurrected, which is likely to be finished in mid January 2008.
Catalog # on CD HMR XD 13. Track #8 and #9 listed as one on rear insert, CD and booklet.
"FRIENDS OF HELL" is the iconic second studio album by Witchfinder General, released in 1983 and now available on CD. This classic record stands as a pillar of early doom metal, blending heavy riffs with haunting vocals to create an atmosphere that has influenced countless bands within the genre. The album features standout tracks such as "Love on Smack," "Music," and the title track "Friends of Hell," each showcasing the band's signature sound: raw, powerful, and unapologetically dark. Witchfinder General emerged from England's New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM) scene in the late 1970s and quickly gained cult status for their Sabbath-inspired style and controversial themes. Their work laid important groundwork for future generations of doom metal artists. The manufacturer, Heavy Metal Records, is renowned for supporting groundbreaking acts within hard rock and metal since its inception in 1978, helping shape the landscape of heavy music through quality releases.

Ein absoluter Kultrelease der NWoBHM! Witchfinder General sind heute bei den meisten Fans leider etwas vom Radar verschwunden, dies aber zu Unrecht. Wer traditionellen, leicht doomigen NWoBM-Metal sucht ist hier an der richtigen Adresse!
