Биография

Like black wings from an obsidian sky, Wormwitch descended from the darkness in 2015, somewhere upon the rain-soaked woodlands of coastal British Columbia. Animated from the bones of several local punk and heavy metal bands, the new entity set out to combine a melodic blackened death assault with the ferocity and attitude of crust punk and classic rock and roll, jettisoning the burdens of ceremony and pomp that dominate the genre today. 
 Wormwitch released their first demo, 'The Long Defeat' in 2015, and shortly after signed to Prosthetic Records, under whom they released 'Strike Mortal Soil' (2017), 'Heaven that Dwells Within' (2019), and 'Wolf Hex' (2021). During that time the band toured with the likes of The Black Dahlia Murder, Suffocation, Midnight, Necrot, Uada, Bewitcher, and many others, earning themselves a dedicated cult following and international critical praise. In 2022, Wormwitch struck out to independently release a string of singles and embark upon several tours of North America, refining their craft and continuing their tried and true tradition of devilish speed, searing melody and diabolical intensity. 
 Now, with blades meticulously honed and tempered under the light of a feral Canadian moon, Wormwitch emerges from the woods once more to offer WEAPONS AGAINST DESPAIR, the leading single from their upcoming split with Atlanta black-thrashers Sadistic Ritual.
