Cheveux au vent, les yeux au ciel : Graywitch – Rise of the Witch
Par Verveneyel
On dirait bien que le fait d’avoir dans son héritage culturel les mythes les plus épiques d’Europe donne aux musiciens de Heavy Metal Grecs des prédispositions pour l’excellence.
Déjà en 2020 je vous parlais du combo Steel Arctus qui envoyait sacrément la barbaque ; aujourd’hui c’est de Graywitch que l’on va faire l’éloge.
L’univers visuel du groupe est sombre, presque shamanique, mais Graywitch n’est pas de cette sorte (fort adorable au demeurant) qui parle de sorcière en se morfondant dans le Metal le plus lourd et lugubre.
Du Heavy Metal de Graywitch se dégage une vraie puissance sauvage, très positive. C’est le genre d’album avec lequel on s’imagine monter le son sur l’autoroute, fenêtres grandes ouvertes. C’est du Heavy avec un son bien moderne, mais qui s’est abreuvé de toutes les bonnes choses, entre Manowar (surtout quand il s’agit de parler de “Metal”, explicitement) et Grave Digger, avec un soupçon de Dragonforce et de Visigoth, un doigt d’Helloween, un murmure de Cirith Ungol, la touche d’Iron Maiden et de Manilla Road qui va bien.
Bref, c’est du bon, ça tape dure avec des riffs aiguisés, des morceaux à fort potentiel scénique, des galopades, une caisse claire chargée en reverb qui claque aux tympans, des harmonies à la tierce que chaque homme de goût sait déguster. Un florilège de recettes qui marchent pour rafraichir le vieux.
C’est le moment ou jamais de renouveler un peu ses classiques !
It seems like having some of Europe’s most epic mythos in their cultural heritage gives Greek Heavy Metal musicians a predisposition for excellence.
Already in 2020 I was talking to you about the Steel Arctus combo which sent a hell of a mess; today it is Graywitch that we will praise.
The visual universe of the group is dark, almost shamanic, but Graywitch is not of this kind (very adorable moreover) which speaks of witch while moping in the heaviest and lugubrious Metal.
From the Heavy Metal of Graywitch emerges a real wild power, very positive. It’s the kind of album with which you imagine yourself turning up the sound on the highway, windows wide open. It’s Heavy with a very modern sound, but which has drunk on all the good things, between Manowar (especially when it comes to talking about “Metal”, explicitly) and Grave Digger, with a hint of Dragonforce and of Visigoth, a finger of Helloween, a whisper of Cirith Ungol, the touch of Iron Maiden and Manilla Road that goes well.
In short, it’s good, it hits hard with sharp riffs, songs with strong scenic potential, galloping, a snare loaded with reverb that slams the eardrums, harmonies in thirds that every man of taste knows how to taste. An anthology of recipes that work to refresh the old.
Great news coming from the Infected Studios. All the rhythm and most of the lead guitars have been recorded. The sound is really tight and we are excited with what we hear.
The next album will consist of a 8 + 1 (intro) songs. We are currently finalizing the details for the solos and we are also arranging some cool guests.
We have started recording our second full length album, that we hope to release during 2022. The drums recordings are already completed, thanks to the professionalism of the guys at Infected Studios. Thomas performance was once again amazing. Check it out below.
We are excited to be as one of the four suggested metal releases for 2021 by Mundo Metal Brazil. Thank you guys! Read the full post below…
“Rise of the Witch” is on #12 of the Bóveda de Acero Top 21. How cool is this?
Another great review coming from Rock Da Vinci.
“When Aphrodite became a witch, the night was filled with steel and fire”
Με ατσάλι και φωτιά υποδέχεται το Νησί της Αφροδίτης το Καλοκαίρι , καθώς οι Ελληνοκύπριοι Graywitch είναι μία μπάντα που ξεκίνησε το 2018 και από τότε προσπαθεί να δημιουργήσει τα δικά της κομμάτια με συνοδό την Ογκώδη κιθάρα , τον δυναμισμό των τυμπάνων και τα δυναμικά Old School φωνητικά. Πλέον μέσω της εμβληματικής Sleaszy Rider Records , δίνουν στην δημοσιότητα το πρώτο τους μουσικό έναυσμα και συγκεκριμένα το Debut Full Album τους “Rise Of The Witch” και κάπως έτσι είναι έτοιμοι να τα δώσουν όλα με σύμμαχο τους , το Heavy Metal! Heavy Metal Is The Law και έτσι η Αφροδίτη φοράει Perfecto και κάνει Headbanging σε Heavy Metal ρυθμούς!

We are so excited to read the review of the greatest Heavy Metal printed magazine in Greece, “Metal Hammer & Heavy Metal” 🙂
Read the review below:
Θεσπέσιο! Μόνο έτσι μπορεί να χαρακτηριστεί το ντεμπούτο των εκ Θεσσαλονίκης ορμώμενων Graywitch, το οποίο ακολουθεί τις επιτυχημένες διδαχές του περήφανου γερμανικού heavy/power (ιδίως Running Wild, Hellowen), χωρίς όμως να κουράζει ή να περνάει αδιάφορο. Αντίθετα, ανεβάζει με ευκολία τη διάθεση προς κατανάλωση άφθονου ζύθου και τα ’80s vibes με τίτλους όπως “Metalhead” και “Heavy Metal Life” καθιστούν ακόμα πιο εμφανώς ειλικρινείς τις προθέσεις τις μπάντας. Και επειδή θα έρθει η ερώτηση του “τι έχει να μας προσφέρει εν έτει 2021;” η απάντηση είναι μία: Διασκέδαση! Μια έννοια που μας υπενθυμίζεται ότι πρέπει να εκτιμούμε και να βιώνουμε περισσότερο. 8 / 10
8.5/10 A great way to start the week is reading the “Rise of the Witch” review by “Power Metal Warrior“.
Słychać, że kochają lata 80 i ta muzyka płynie prosto z ich serca. Warto też pochwalić wokalistę Dino Nassisa, który ma charyzmatyczny głos, który może nie powala agresją, ale ciekawą manierą i hard rockowym pazurem.
Translation:
You can hear that they love the 80’s and this music flows straight from their hearts. It is also worth praising the singer Dino Nassis, who has a charismatic voice that may not be overwhelming with aggression, but with an interesting manner and hard rock claw.
Ciarki mam przy rozbudowanym “My Comrade”, który idealnie miesza patenty heavy metalowe i power metalowe. Dużo dzieje się w tym kawałku i każda zagrywka wpada w ucho. Prawdziwe cudo. Echa wczesnego helloween można wyłapać w rozpędzonym i agresywnym “The rise”. Graywitch pokazuje, że jest dojrzałym zespołem, który wie co chce grać. Na sam koniec dostajemy “Realms of the unseen”, w którym band zabiera nas w rejony bardziej epickie.
Translation:
I have chills with the extended “My Comrade” , which perfectly mixes heavy metal and power metal patents. There’s a lot going on in this piece and every play is ear-catching. A real miracle. Echoes of early helloween can be caught in the speeding and aggressive “The rise”. Graywitch shows that they are a mature band that knows what they want to play. At the end we get “Realms of the unseen”, in which the band takes us to more epic regions.
