Old school heavy metal newcomers Burning Witches are set to release their new album “Hexenhammer” on November 9th.
Today, the band are premiering the official video for the title track - watch it below.
The band commented on the video: “The filming of the "Hexenhammer" video was an exciting new experience for the band. Our second video dives into the story of Malleus Maleficarum, written by the discredited Catholic clergyman Heinrich Kramer, to legitimate his cruel deeds against woman in the 15th century. The title track stands for the album, it is melodic and heavy and reflects the sound of the band in a perfect way! We hope you will enjoy the video, which opens up a new authentic chapter for the band! We wanna thank the Witchcraft museum in Gränichen/Switzerland and its founder and director Miss Wicca Meier-Spring and her team for the support on this large project. Also we wanna thank the Operahouse of Zurich for the costumes and the props. Ancient recordings and editing by Michael Buzek - cheers to the whole team for making this amazing venture possible!”...
“Hexenhammer” is available for pre-order on a variety of different formats here.
Tracklist:
1. The Witch Circle
2. Executed
3. Lords of War
4. Open Your Mind
5. Don’t Cry My Tears
6. Maiden of Steel
7. Dungeon of Infamy
8. Dead Ender
9. Hexenhammer
10. Possession
11. Maneater
12. Holy Diver
13. Self Sacrifice [bonus track]

“Hexenhammer” was produced in the Little Creek Studios by the same team as its predecessor: V.O. Pulver (Pro-Pain, Destruction, Nervosa, Pänzer) and Destruction legend Schmier, who helped and advised as a close friend of the band. The result is a truly brilliant heavy metal album, destined to take away the breath of headbangers worldwide, and of course make the people bang their heads!
