If you
weren’t already familiar with Brighton based band, The Wytches’, macabre
material- it would only take a mere skim of their debut album, Annabel Dream
Reader, to discover their uncanny ability to merge so many different genres
from so many different eras to create a unique, ordered chaos of post-punk
meets psychedelic-surf-rock that works so very well together.
From the
screeching guitars and slurred vocals of ‘Digsaw;’ a track which promotes the
surf-rock side of the bands repertoire, to the hazy, lovesick cries of ‘Weights
and Ties’- The Wytches manage to display their versatility upon every track,
without losing their dark, early-Nirvana-influenced twang with which each and
every track on the LP remains bound together by. This undeniable craft is few
and far between within the current bombardment of psych-rock outfits we have
been introduced to over the past twelve months. If there’s one band worth
keeping your eyes peeled for during the coming months, it’s The Wytches.
