Switzerland’s hottest heavy metal export BURNING WITCHES is gearing up for the next spellbinding ritual in the band’s history by joining forces with Napalm Records, as the five-piece has just inked a worldwide contract with the premier rock and metal label.
Breaking the scene with their self-titled debut in 2017 and immediately entering the Swiss album charts, this powerhouse force of trailblazing women has been on a bewitching mission to conquer the world with traditional thundering heavy metal ever since. Previous albums Hexenhammer (2018) and Dance With The Devil (2020) both landed top chart positions in Germany and Switzerland, and led to the unit’s most successful record to date, The Witch of the North (2021 – #16 GER album charts, #6 CH album charts). With their smashing appearances at festivals like the legendary Wacken Open Air, Summer Breeze and Rock Harz Open Air, as well as touring with greats such as Grave Digger, BURNING WITCHES are now ready to conjure their next sonic feast, all dedicated to the spirit of true heavy metal. Stay tuned for more!
