WITCHFINDER GENERAL

Vinyl re-issue with gatefold cover of the 2nd and final album from 1983 by this legendary British Heavy/ Doom Metal band. With "Friends of Hell", WITCHFINDER GENERAL further refined the sound introduced on its debut, blending massive seventies-inspired riffs with dark atmospheres and an unmistakable occult aura that established the band as one of the most influential NWOBHM acts in the development of Doom Metal.

The songs balance crushing, gloomy passages with memorable melodies and a strong classic Heavy Metal feel, supported by Phil Cope's distinctive guitar work and the unmistakable vocals of Zeeb Parkes. Regarded as an absolute classic of British Heavy/ Doom Metal, "Friends of Hell" remains an essential album for understanding the evolution of the genre during the 1980s.
