BURNING WITCHES Release Music Video For ‘Flight Of The Valkyries’

Swiss/Dutch metallers BURNING WITCHES will release their fourth full-length album, “The Witch Of The North”, on May 28 via Nuclear Blast Records. The official visualizer for the disc’s first single, “Flight Of The Valkyries”, can be seen below.

Following 2020’s “Dance Of The Devil”, which charted at #22 in Germany, and the “Circle Of Five” EP, vocalist Laura Guldemond, guitarists Romana Kalkuhl and Larissa Ernst, bassist Jeanine Grob and drummer Lala Frischknecht notably upped the ante on “The Witch Of The North”, delivering their most dynamic, intricate and powerful album thus far. Perfectly mixed and mastered by V.O. Pulver and produced by German thrash titan Schmier (DESTRUCTION), the LP sees BURNING WITCHES stick to their irrefutable 1980s influences (JUDAS PRIEST, IRON MAIDEN, DIO, ACCEPT, WARLOCK, W.A.S.P., etc.) and inject irresistible energy and a refreshing vibe, topping it off with classic art by Claudio Bergamín (who illustrated JUDAS PRIEST‘s triumphant “Firepower”). From the epic title track to the album’s catchiest anthem “We Stand As One” over to the ballad “Lady Of The Woods” and speedy riff attacks like “Thrall”, “Flight Of The Valkyries” and “Nine Worlds”, “The Witch Of The North” marks a new highlight in the band’s career, with vocalist Laura brilliantly shifting from aggressive to seductive with ease.
