Late October: Traditionally a Good Time for Witches
by Jordan
Please note: MP3s are only kept online for a short time, and if this entry is from more than a couple of weeks ago, the music probably won't be available to download any more.
Among the potential pitfalls of privilege as enumerated by the Witchies are idleness, illness, death by murder. "Woe betide," the Witchies warn heirs and royal scions, though the same antiquated imperative might be directed at the band itself. Woe betide, Witchies, for your music is a disquieting combination of macabre and merry, of Goya and ABBA, and if you don't cut it out soon, I may not emerge psychologically unscathed from this uninterrupted weeks-long listening. Less desolation than chief Witchie Chad Jones' previous band, the fine Frankie Sparo, but even more twisted romance and a touch of pop, too, amid the ornate lyrics and snaking guitar.
