Seventies Tapes by Angel Witch
These are the demo tapes recorded by Angel Witch in 1978 & 1979, on various reel to reel recording devices across the attics and front rooms of their native South London.
These recordings comprise the earliest, embryonic versions of tracks such as ‘White Witch’, ‘Baphomet’ & ‘Sorceress’ which would remain staples in the Angel Witch live cannon almost 40 years later, testament to the songwriting skills of, the then 18 year old, Kevin Heybourne.
These cuts are rough and raw, and all the better for it.
PLEASE NOTE - YOU CAN PAY WHAT YOU WANT FOR THE DIGITAL FILES OF THESE RECORDINGS, BUT ALL PROCEEDS WILL BE DONATED TO THE VICTIMS OF THE APPALLING FIRE WHICH TOOK PLACE AT GRENFELL TOWER, WEST LONDON, IN THE EARLY HOURS OF 14TH JUNE 2017. SO PLEASE GIVE GENEROUSLY AND LET ANYONE YOU THINK MAY BE INTERESTED KNOW ABOUT THIS PAGE.

Forty years and more have passed since the original inception of Angel Witch rose from the inauspicious locale of suburban Kent with the doom-laden clangour of Black Sabbath ringing in its ears and leading a movement of bands that reinvented heavy metal as a form darker, heavier, faster and more intense than anything previously issued forth.
