The Swedish blackened thrash masterpiece returns: Witchery's cult classic Don't Fear The Reaper is resurrected by Back on Black on CD and stunning, limited-edition clear vinyl!

 

Originally summoned from the depths in 2006 after a highly anticipated hiatus, Witchery's fourth studio masterpiece, Don't Fear The Reaper, remains a monumental checkpoint in the history of Scandinavian metal. Led by an all-star lineup featuring Jensen (The Haunted), Sharlee D'Angelo (Arch Enemy), and Martin Axenrot (Opeth, Bloodbath), the album seamlessly balances agonizing, mid-tempo grooving malice with relentless, breakneck blackened speed.

 

Expertly produced and mixed at Antfarm Studios by metal icon Tue Madsen (The Haunted, Meshuggah), Don't Fear The Reaper treats listeners to highly melodic guitar wizardry, exceptionally clean hooks, and cartoonish gothic organs that provide an immersive cemetery dread. It also features standard-setting guest solos from Hank Shermann (Mercyful Fate) and a blistering cover of "Immortal Death" from the band's predecessor project, Satanic Slaughter.
