Old-school heavy metal newcomers BURNING WITCHES are set to unleash their second album, “Hexenhammer”, on November 9th, 2018 via Nuclear Blast Records.
Today, the band released the third single titled ‘Open Your Mind’. The song can be heard and watched in the form of a lyric video over here:
The band states: “We are very proud to announce our last lyric video for the track OPEN YOUR MIND! The song delivers a message for all of us: Don’t let fear and anger control your life! We all should stand together in this time, when racism is about to grow again. We should remember that we are all the same. «Open your Mind – Open your Heart – and try to remember how to cry!“
There is only a month left until old-school heavy metal newcomers BURNING WITCHES finally unleash their sophomore record titled “Hexenhammer”, via Nuclear Blast Records (out November 9). Following on from two trailers that delivered fans insight into the band’s history as well as the new record’s concept & cover artwork, the group is today proud to release another musical taster in the form of the music video for ‘Hexenhammer’ today.
Check it out over here:
States the band, “The filming of the ‘Hexenhammer’ video was an exciting new experience for the band. Our second video dives into the story of »Malleus Maleficarum«, written by the discredited Catholic clergyman Heinrich Kramer, to legitimate his cruel deeds against woman in the 15th century. The title track stands for the album, it is melodic and heavy and reflects the sound of the band in a perfect way! We hope you will enjoy the video, which opens up a new authentic chapter for the band!
“We wanna thank the Witchcraft museum in Gränichen/Switzerland and its founder and director Miss Wicca Meier-Spring and her team for the support on this large project. Also we wanna thank the Operahouse of Zurich for the costumes and the props. Ancient recordings and editing by Michael Buzek – cheers to the whole team for making this amazing venture possible!”

The forthcoming record was produced in the Little Creek Studio by the same team as its predecessor: V.O. Pulver (PRO-PAIN, DESTRUCTION, NERVOSA, PÄNZER) and DESTRUCTION legend Schmier, who helped and advised as a close friend of the band. The result is a truly brilliant heavy metal album, which will take away the breath of metal heads worldwide, and of course make people bang their heads!
The stunning cover artwork was created by acclaimed Hungarian artist Gyula, who has also created artwork for DESTRUCTION, ANNIHILATOR, GRAVE DIGGER, STRATOVARIUS,TANKARD and many more.
