Дебютный альбом группы Burning Witches ("Пылающие ведьмы") из Швейцарии. Я заинтересовался их творчеством после прослушивания трека "Hexenhammer" из одноименного альбома 2018 года.
Группа интересна тем, что она чисто женская. Лидер группы, гитаристка Romana Kalkuhl (Романа Калькуль), хотела создать чисто женскую группу, играющую классический олдскульный металл. Продюссером группы стал басист и вокалист DESTRUCTION Марсель «Schmier» Ширмер.
Но вернемся к дебютному альбому.
Явно прослеживается влияние Judas Priest, чего не скрывают сами музыкантки, т.к. включили в альбом кавер на песню "Jawbreaker". Риффы и архитектура песен действительно похожи на классиков металла. Однако, Burning Witches уже на первом альбоме начинают развиваться и идти дальше. Прослушиваются элементы Power metal. Это начало формирования собственного стиля, отчетливо прослеживающегося в следующем альбоме "Hexenhammer".
Музыкальные достоинства альбома:
- отличные, «забойные» риффы;
- шикарный, сильный, вокал от Seraina Telli (Серейна Телли), она умеет петь и с «хрипотцой», и чистым пронзительным звуком запоминающегося тембра;
- скупые, но мелодичные соло на гитаре.
Недостатки:
- местами «сыровато», не доведено до отточенности;
- иногда слишком академично, слишком правильно, как швейцарские часы :)
Общий вывод: Хороший дебют, группа показала свой потенциал. |

Black widow
Bow down to the queen of the night
When she steps from the shade into the bright
Unscrupulous man-eater, is her hight
You can't see her, just feel
The widow
Bow down to the swayer of Hades
She's the unchallenged and the greatest
In this world of destruction and darkened light
You can't see her just feel her bite
Mortal lover, brings you pain
If you try to disturb her domain
Death will infest your holy bed
She's not a killer but she'll leave you dead
Silent creep, spooky look
She attacks you with a barbed hook
A darksome beauty, hides in the shadow
The gloom of the night lets her glow
Black widow
Bow down to the queen of the night
When she steps from the shade into the bright
Unscrupulous man-eater, is her hight
You can't see her, just feel
The widow
Bow down to the swayer of Hades
She's the unchallenged and the greatest
In this world of destruction and darkened light
You can't see her just feel her bite
2. Burning Witches 04:19
Hunter, chaser, habit-keeper
Decision - maker of life and death
Bring your fire to the torch and keep it up in the darkest hour
Do you still think you're right?
Nothing to see, nothing to hear, nothing to say
So come and chase me through the woods
Your prayers and words to god
Will be unheard
So chase me and my own kind
Burn the witches, burn the witches, burn the witches
But the fear remains in your head
Baiter, conspirer, whistle-blower
Starry-eyed idealist
Hold your pitchforks in the sky, and let your hatred reign
Nothing to see, nothing to hear, nothing to say
So come and chase me through the woods
Your prayers and words to god
Will be unheard
So chase me and my own kind
Burn the witches, burn the witches, burn the witches
But the fear remains in your head
Hater, grudger, pretender
Meticulous, fearfully easy prey
Use your insecurity as an excuse
To put those strangers in the pillory
Nothing to see, nothing to hear, nothing to say
So come and chase me through the woods
Your prayers and words to god
Will be unheard
So chase me and my own kind
Burn the witches, burn the witches, burn the witches
But the fear remains in your head
We are the burning witches
3. Bloody Rose 03:53
A virgin soul
Disturbed by a deadly force
A chased heart
A sacrifice of blood
It haunts you in the night
Something in you is dying
God-forsaken
The devil dwells in you
Go devil begone
Go devil begone
Go devil begone
Go devil begone
She brings you pain
Constantly recurring
Will take a part of you
Relentless and damning
It haunts you in the night
Something in you is dying
You can only scream her name
Bloody rose
Bloody rose
She comes to get your damned breed
Oh oh oh oh
Bloody rose
Bloody rose
She comes to get your damned breed
Oh oh oh oh
Bloody rose
Her tainted blood
Stained your blanched sheets
Pray to god
That you'll never meet
It haunts you in the right
Something in you is dying
You're damned for life
Bloody rose
Bloody rose
She comes to get your damned breed
Oh oh oh oh
Bloody rose
Bloody rose
She comes to get your damned breed
Oh oh oh oh
Bloody rose
8. We Eat Your Children 03:03
It's time to go out
Not only in the night
You can hear us scream and shout
Not only in the night
Oh, there is the strange guys coming
We'll bring you fright
Hear the final warning
We're born to fight, we leave the blight
We're on the way, mommies and daddies pray
We eat your children
Oh oh oh
We eat your children
Oh oh oh
We were there at the stone age
You know the shadow in your cave
We were there in antiquity
Between you rotting harvest
We were there in the mid age
Hunger, plague, war, death
We were with you and still today
The whispering behind your face
We're on the way, no matter what you pray
For your children
Oh oh oh
We eat your children
Oh oh oh
We're not expellable by the light
So there isn't a place to hide
For your children
For what you pray, for what you pray
For what you pray, for what you pray
We eat your children
Oh oh oh
We eat your children
Oh oh oh
We're not expellable by the light
So there isn't a place to hide
For your children
10. The Deathlist 05:20
A graveyard in the haze
What a creepy trysting place
A figure steps in
Straight away she begins
To move around a grave
Of a soldier, bold and brave
He's rising from the dead
Cos' he's in love with the hag
See a witch and a ghost
Dancing with the dead
If a witch can love a ghost
Then can the world be changed?
After all
Reunited till the downfall
Their life reclaims a heavy toll
After all
They're together standing tall
Listed on the same death list
A girl scarred by war
Compelled to be a whore
No family's around
Born without a chance, born hell bound
A man reaches out to her
The only one who cares
But the savior's too late
What a fatal date
Like a witch and a ghost
They're dancing with the dead
If a man looks after whore
Then can the world be changed?
After all
Reunited till the downfall
Their life reclaims a heavy toll
After all
They're together standing tall
Listed on the same death list
After all
Reunited till the downfall
Their life reclaims a heavy toll
After all
They're together standing tall
Listed on the same death list
Oh oh
11. Jawbreaker (Judas Priest cover) 03:34
Deadly as the viper
Peering from its coil
The poison there is coming to the boil
Ticking like a time bomb
The fuse is running short
On the verge of snapping if it's caught
And all the pressure that's been building up
For all the years it bore the load
The cracks appear, the frame starts to distort
Ready to explode -- Jawbreaker
Crouching in the corner
Wound up as a spring
Piercing eyes that flash are shimmering
Muscles are all contorted
Claws dug in the dirt
Every ounce of fiber on alert
And all the pressure that's been building up
For all the years it bore the load
The cracks appear, the frame starts to distort
Ready to explode -- Jawbreaker
And all the pressure that's been building up
For all the years it bore the load
The cracks appear, the frame starts to distort
Ready to explode -- Jawbreaker
