Dawn fuckin' good! I will note one small things..you should try to turn the sound lound to blow speakers off hwen uploading this video! !!!!! LOL!!! Thanks for the masterpiece!
Im 47. I stopped listening to hard rock/metal years ago. Ive been into rockabilly & roots music. These guys are fucking great!!! This is getting me listening again!!
after kowin many an angle-whitch just gotta say i love this song. on another note I love youtube I get to see what i've missed over all the years (wasted years)and I can SEE and HEAR all thisstuff , remember, it still holds value to thos who can almost remember. or somthing like that. ya. metal up your ass!!
I think is one of AW worst tracks. I first saw this band in it's pre Aw days when they were known as Lucifer. I knew them then because my brother was on drums. When Aw were a 4 piece they were a lot better live. First saw AW in 1978 at the geen man pub.. Then at a gig at a church hall with the church white crucifix as a background. Last saw them in Dec 2008 at Camden Underworld as a 4 piece again and were good although Heybournes vocals aint what they used to be.
i remember buying this album when it came out in 1980 i was 14 at the time damn memories i was all into the nwobhm scene i bought mostly all of the nwobhm bands albums i remember going to see these bands i saw iron maiden with paul dianno damn good times too bad my mom threw away all of my albums i had grrr!!!!
because when i moved out of my parents house i forgot all of it and left them there and she didnt know what to do with them so she sold them and threw all of my concert tickets and all my shirts damn was i pissed at her well atleast i bought some on cd but not all of them there to hard to find!!!!
YES! I loved them back then and I have done without them for a loooooong time, but NEVER forgot them. (My stinkin' brother bought the only copy I ever saw.) I like Sorcerors, Gorgon, Free Man, Devils Tower-Oh heck it's great...Angel of Death, This one, Atlantis, IT'S GREAT!
Pitty that such a great band didn't get what they deserved. In their beginning of NWOBHM era they were far more the best than any other musicians at that time, even better that Maiden (which are my favourite band!)
I like most all kinds of music. I always found Angel Witch had ideas above their station and had assumed "rock-star" status from day 1. I think they squabbled and fell out.
As I understand it, the problems arose from Kevin's Dad who was their Manager.They were offered a contract by EMI and he turned it down. Kevin also had the attitude that this was his band and wanted all the limelight which is why I think they ended up as a three piece.
Angel Witch didn't turn down the EMI deal - they signed it. But the 'Sweet Danger' 7" (on EMI) performed poorly and they were dropped again and Bronze picked them up for the debut. And AW were Kevin's band, just like Maiden are Steve Harris' band, too.
SabuPtolemy. Angel Witch did turn an EMI deal down. It was down to Ken Heybourne, the then AW manager and Kevin's Dad. The single was a one off and a deal was turned down because of too many restrictions. If you're in any doubt ask Dave Hogg.
Sounds like they turned it down for good reasons then. Nobody needs a restrictive record deal. And it's not like EMI were gonna treat AW as a priority act when Maiden were taking off like mad. Look at how little they did for Wild Horses whose EMI debut came out only 1 month after Maiden's.
SabuPtolemy . Wild Horses. Now there's a blast from the past .I saw them a few times and Michel Shencker and Phil Lynott were guesting onstage with them at a gig at The Electric Ballroom.
It always puzzles me as to why these giant corporations sign bands up then fail to give them the support they need. Then they're dumped for no other reason than lack of support from the very people that should be giving it to them.
Dec. 1, '79 @ the EBallroom? There is actually a bootleg of that show and bits are on YouTube. Wish I could've seen that show.
Signing a new band to a label is like a kid getting a shiny new toy. At first they're all excited and then it loses its luster and it's on to the next thing. In the case of Wild Horses, Robbo and Jimmy being notorious boozers and druggies probably didn't help. Not to mention that the band were probably not heavy metal enough at the time. Great music though.
That was the first time listening the to the first song by this band that I have heard... that being said.. I was not saying their lyrics are'nt deep, i was merely saying regardless, meaning without considering the value of the lyrics(cause i dont know it), The riffage is Jam Packed with sweetness and atitude. I say that in case you think I was saying the lyrics are not good.
Furthermore I think its very ignorant of you to say such things about death metal. Not every death metal act writes their lyrics about the same stuff as for example cannibal corpse does.. Listen to Death, or Athiest, along with MANY others, and find the proof in my statement.
This brings back some great memories. I remember buying this album from the local pawn shop, the same year it was released, for about $2.00. The Music store went out of business, and sold everything to the pawnshop, and I purchased 1/2 the enventory from them. I was about 13yrs old... Awesome memories. LOVE IT THANK YOU
Can't see Kevin Riddles in a disco shop!!!.Nice bloke talked to him many times on Girls/angel/tank tour he seemed to think we were only there to see Tank...maybe so !!!!
what riff man... what happenned to rocknroll nowdays ??? every stupid is a genius just because put together some pieces of old songs with some electronic bullshit... ANGEL WITCH rules! There is nothing like british heavy metal.
Unfortunately this was one of their worse tracks. Flight 19 and Bhaphomet were brilliant but the album lacked a decent production. Saw them quite a few times in the late seventies and were great live as a four piece band but as with Sabbath, didn't quite hack it live as a three piece. Iron Maiden were support band on a few occasions.
Totally agree with you there grumpy, I had an old tape of them in Romford or somewhere that I secretly recorded and played to death in my youth. Got the T-shirt too. I'm sure I saw the guitarist strummin' to himself around a tent at Stonehenge festival in the early 80's. I could've been mistaken. Any idea where I can get MP3's of the songs you mention?
The only Cd I'd contemplate getting after some research is SINISTER HISTORY which apparently sounds more like "Black Sabbath played through a cement mixer". The trouble was that they never recreated this "live" sound in the studio. Subsequently this, and all their other albums - with the exception of the Sinister History's live tracks - sound far too dumbed down.
Kevin said at the time of the debut album that this is the sound they wanted to create which was bollox as Dave(drums) did his nut when heard the final version. As for live,like Sabbath, they were in dire need of a rhythm guitarist which they did have in Rob Downing.But Rob took too much limelight me thinks and Kevin got rid.
I saw them quite a few times as my brother played drums in Lucifer, the band that eventually became Angel Witch. If you look on AW offical myspace site, all the photos with Rob in are mine.I did start to lose interest when Rob left as I didn't think they could hack it live without a rhythm guitarist.
Wow, fantastic, where'd they hail from then, if it's not too stupid a question? My local was The Hermit in Brentwood, but would sometimes travel to Chelmsford, Romford and London to see gigs. Do you know much about the Sinister History album and do you have it?
The band were from south east London area of Lewisham. Rob and Dave still live in Lee Green. Don't have Sinister History. I didn't buy any albums apart from the debut.
kevin"skids"riddles bassist,had a classic tshirt , he wore it all the time , something along the lines of blowjobs from alligators,ah the memories of warm beer out of plastic glasses comes to mind with this band
I should have been born in the 60's at least, and not in the late 80's because I hate nearly everything that I have grown up with. It seems things are becoming shitter, like music, tv and fashion (I would like to buy myself some flares, but I would probably get the shit kicked out of me if I was caught wearing them). There are only a couple of things I like, such as the Internet (well broadband Internet) and errr.....
I always thought their other songs better than this. Inspired me to form my own band, we couldn't get any gigs as we were all too young at the time. These were the first gigs I ever went to though, my band's name was (I'm embarrased now... GOLEM) Angelwitch completely inspired me along with Rush. Unfortunately became follically challenged so had to give up headbanging, although have been known to air guitar when the feeling takes me.
Nice-one Thanks.I'd like to talk to you more, but if i leave e-mail address, it gets deleted. I'm a bit of a novice on PC,and don't know a way round it,Do you???
Hi Dave, I think one way would be to put the word DOT where there's a dot in the address when you go to the users profile and send them a message. Incidentally can you tell us ow about SINISTER HISTORY? Also runs your MySpace?
somebody up there just said "the first real black metal"..maybe they had black metal imagery,but these lyrics are straight up like dokken or winger. good music though.
Great, saw them 3 times in '79 I think, The Hermit Brentwood, Romford and Chelmsford. Goit Kevin's plectrum in Brentwood and made a tape recording in Romford which I listened to a lot and wish I still had. he was a great guitarist and I always thought the bassist was a big fucker.
Wow I can't believe that even exist, that band not only a NWOBHM classic, but the first real 'black metal' band influencing Venom and Merciful Fate before the fllodgates opened with Slayer and the rest. Awesome.
Thanks Coo1, never seen this rare video before, my fave band of all time along with Sabbath. Heybourne is the unluckiest guy around, should've made it bigger in the metal world, he's still a legend.
Five stars just for being here. Looks as though this was shot well after 1980. Either that or Ozzy stole his shoulder pads and sequins idea from Kevin Riddles. Regardless, thanks!

somebody up there just said "the first real black metal"..maybe they had black metal imagery,but these lyrics are straight up like dokken or winger. good music though.

The problem is...Angel witch or lucifer as they were previosly called, were around longer than dokken or winger.

Great, saw them 3 times in '79 I think, The Hermit Brentwood, Romford and Chelmsford. Goit Kevin's plectrum in Brentwood and made a tape recording in Romford which I listened to a lot and wish I still had. he was a great guitarist and I always thought the bassist was a big fucker.

Wow I can't believe that even exist, that band not only a NWOBHM classic, but the first real 'black metal' band influencing Venom and Merciful Fate before the fllodgates opened with Slayer and the rest. Awesome.

Thanks Coo1, never seen this rare video before, my fave band of all time along with Sabbath. Heybourne is the unluckiest guy around, should've made it bigger in the metal world, he's still a legend.

Five stars just for being here. Looks as though this was shot well after 1980. Either that or Ozzy stole his shoulder pads and sequins idea from Kevin Riddles. Regardless, thanks!
