Chile’s Bewitched’s version of the Mercyful Fate classic “Black Funeral”, had me so curious. I didn’t start the CD with song #1, I went straight to the cover. And what do you know? It was good! The production isn’t great, but the vocals are a serious effort at sounding like King Diamond, which is not easy at all. What about the rest of “Dragonflight”? Well, it isn’t that easy to describe. For example, “Poetry of My Forest”, consists of two voices, a high pitched voice and a Bathory black metal voice. Mid-paced rhythms, with some great guitar solos. This band, at times, reminds one of Mercyful Fate, Candlemass, Bathory, Iron Maiden, and some others. In short, doom metal mixed with some black\/death metal. Yes, yes, the production isn’t the best, but that doesn’t take away the fact that Bewitched is extremely catchy, powerful, complex, simple, fast, slow, and makes it all work together very well. Can you believe it? You better believe it! Very creative stuff and not to mention memorable. If Bewitched could get their hands on the kind of production they deserve, I think they would be able to scare the pants off of a lot of bands out there that call themselves original.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
