Witchcurse is a true heavy metal,influenced by the N.W.O.B.H.M. gerne,band from Thessaloniki, Greece, formed in Octomber of 2005, and it's one of the few remaining Heavy Metal Bands devoted to the true heavy metal spirit.
The band was founded by Possessed (Freezing Fog,Vocals - Bass Guitar) with narration of Mr.Necromartyr (Father Alex The WitchFinder-The Temple, Guitars) and L-Drac (Frozen Glare , Erevos-Drums).
With this line up, Witchcurse presented themselves to heavy metal maniax playing in great live shows with Metal Legends including Grim Reaper, Praying Mantis, Attacker e.t.c and appeared in several local shows and festivals.
They also recorded their first rehearshal tape:"Rehearsal 18/12/2005".
One year later Father Alex left the band in order to study abroad. In search for a new guitar player Witchcurse joined forces with Stinky (Easy Mode, Ex-Blackjack) in guitar.
With the new line up the band continued it's crazy route with more live shows side by side with metal titans like Leatherwolf, Exoristoi, Manilla fuckin' Road
and spread the madness beyond the gates of their base-town Thessaloniki.
This period was perfect to record the first self-financed demo "Heavy Metal Poison" which got very good reviews into the circles of true underground metal all over the world, recorded with primitive methods just like the 80's spirit ordered with only components Alcohol, Chics and Hellish Riffs coming from two decades before.
At June 2008 the Band recruited a second guitarist, Necro (Knightskull). With this dual axe attack the perspectives are now greater than ever before. With this line up Witchcurse had their first live gig out of Greece,in Portugal as the headline band in Irmandade Metalica Festival!
At November 2008 and short before the show with Tokyo Blade, after many discussions Witchcurse decided that for several reasons L Drac is no longer able to continue with the band.
Fortunately really soon Witchcurse found a young but skilled drummer, possessed by the old school Heavy Metal spirit called Paul (Orion's Void, Orcus) and with this maniac they released a tape ep at Herege Warfare production(Portugal),"Demon's Warning"tape ep at May 2009.
At july 2009 the band had out their first,on vinyl format,release.It was the split 7"ep:"Witchcurse/Witchtiger:under the spell"(Metal Warning Records-Finland).
These releases opened the road for the record deal with Inferno records(France) and Heavy forces records(Germany).In November 2009 the band released through Heavy Forces records the split LP with Witchunter:"Defenders Of The Past".The same time took part "The Curse of the Kobra"tour 2009 in Germany,with Iron Kobra,in 3 citys:Muelheim(19/11),Frankfurt(20/11) and Hamburg(21/11).
In February 2010 the first official videoclip of Witchcurse was a reality.It was for the song "Curse the false" and it will be officially released in the cd version of the upcoming album.
Stay tuned for the upcoming releases of the band,with most important,the upcoming first full lenght album which will be out in 3 formats:vinyl(Heavy Forces rec),cd(Inferno rec.) and tape(Dynamite prod).
Witchcurse will continue spread the heavy metal spirit wherever they can and
play only indilugent old - school metal!

Thanks for the add! I saw you guys at Hamburg and it was a really great show! We're looking forward making a festival with Vicious Rumors, Tokyo Blade (original Line-Up) and Eure Erben (Ex-Darkness) at the 30th october this year. If you're in germany about this time, just make a request to Eddie for playing at our festival. I think you would perfectly fit!
Regarding playing Savage Grace: I feared that it would be very hot in the club but I was amazed about the fresh air which made it more easy for me to play the SG-stuff on the drums. After playing in Viron, Roxxcalbur and previous bands, all this double-bass stuff had to be refreshed during the last months. I played in some Thrash bands in the late 80s...
