#101 - Burning Witch (Part 1)

Formed from the ashes of Thorr’s Hammer, Seattle doom pioneers Burning Witch burned intensely but briefly, dissolving before they could release a proper record.

Initially met with confusion and lingering stares, the band’s mix of relentless heaviness and suffocating dread later earned them cult status—thanks in part to the reissues by Southern Lord Recordings.

Join us as we kick off our two-part series on Burning Witch, discussing their unique history and exploring their two seminal albums, Towers… and Rift.Canyon.Dreams, whose influence continues to echo through extreme music today!
