HeviSike Records Inks Deal With Space Witch For New Album "Arcanum"

HeviSike Records is pleased to announce the impending release "Arcanum" by British instrumental doom band Space Witch. The album is set to be released on digital, CD and vinyl formats in the Spring of 2017.

Space Witch is a psychedelic stoner/doom band that draws on influences from 70's prog and psychedelia. The band formed in Stoke-on-Trent, England, UK in 2007 and consists of Darren Lee Rowlands (Guitars and founder member), Daniel Mansfield (drums), Peter Callaghan (Vocals and Electronics) and Tomas Cairn (Bass)

In 2008, the band issued the first demo, a 2 track self-titled affair and quickly followed it up with a stream of gigs in the UK underground. The demo was followed up in 2011 with "Resurrection" a 7 track demo which included three live recordings. In 2013, the band released the debut EP "The Alchemy Paradox" - a three track mini album which was released by defunct Bristol based label Cosmic Tomb.

In 2014, the band released a split with the UK Doom band Trollkraftt called "Wytchkraft" and the self-titled first full length (double album) released as a joint venture with labels HeviSike Records, Fear Me Music and Orchestrated Dystopia Records. To follow the album up, the band toured the UK as well as playing Norway and headlining a festival in Edinburgh which featured on a underground documentary about the Edinburgh scene. Since that time, Space Witch has supported bands such as Conan and Mars Red Sky before taking time to write the sophomore full length "Arcanum."

More info on the new album is expected shortly.
