On Saturday, January 29, I saw The Witches perform at Small's in Hamtramck, Detroit, MI.
Such an amazing performance the likes of which I haven't seen in ages! Playing a mix of old songs and new ones, these Witches entertained their life long fans and won over new converts. They are like no other band. They mesmerize; they alter your reality with their insanity, which is controlled and chaotic all at once.
Maybe if David Bowie was fronting TRex, there could be a band like the Witches, but they rock more.... like Queen in the old days or Led Zeppelin. Guitarists John Nash and Eugene Machine are both strong silent types, but they're like Jimmy Page wailing away. They brew up a lot of menace also - "Some Girls Basement" was exceptionally and excitingly creepy. "Attack ov thee misfit Toys" from the forthcoming album "Thriller" was over the top in its power and camp.
Please go visit the Witches online at the witches
so you can download their amazing songs and check out their noise... as I have said before: Troy Gregory is the coolest man alive.
