Swedish proto-metal quintet Wytch sign to Ripple Music; share rocking first single and details for upcoming debut album 'Exordium'!

Ripple Music are happy to welcome Skellefteå, Sweden's proto-metallers WYTCH to their international roster, for the release of their debut album 'Exordium' on May 21st, 2021. Enjoy the merciless grooves of their debut single "Black Hole" now exclusively via The Sleeping Shaman!

 

First single “Black Hole” is a straightforward heavy rock tune that rocks in all the rights places with commanding riffs and a sharp rhythm section, all enhanced by Johanna Lundberg's sultry and fiery vocals. Darkness-bound yet universally relatable, this 5-minute proto-metal banger deals with reaching the breaking point and trying to get back alive.

“‘Our album Exordium' is about the darker side of life, love and even death. The sound ranges from soft and mellow heavy to almost punk rock, but overall, you can call it Heavy Rock. There's no intentional flirtation with the 70s or any other specific era for that matter, we just played whatever we felt like. No boundaries. The album was recorded without a click track, which certainly added authenticity and honesty to it." says the band.

 

Their debut album 'Exordium' was recorded and produced by Niklas Viklund at Silverhäxan Studios in Skellefteå, and mastered by Ronnie Björnström at The Mixroom, Sundsvall in Sweden. The artwork was designed by WYTCH vocalist Johanna Lundberg. 'Exordium' will be released on May 21st, 2021 in various vinyl formats, CD and digital through Ripple Music.
