The Flight After The Fall

by Witch Ripper

supported by

Mike Inscho Killer riffage, sludgy and clean vocals. Moments in this album remind you of iconic passages from classic rock. Thunderous percussive grooves! You can hear the melting pot of influences all over this album. Bohemian Rhapsody, Crack The Skye, High On Fire, and Baroness crunch in places. Talent all over these tracks. This is their 2nd full length? Hot damn.

I really dug this album. A+ on replay value! Favorite track: Everlasting in Retrograde Pts I & II.

grim_josef I brought this for two reasons:
- this is an exceptionally great album
- I now have the opportunity to vent my anger about the fact that nobody knows this band!
You know - there are a lot of OK, quite good, yeah they are allright bands out there. But this is none of them!
Witch Ripper are every bit in the same league as the bands and artists they draw their inspirations from.
Please help spread the word!

jayro7821 This is my first Witch Ripper album, and it has become my most played album. It just rips, from start to finish. I wish I had something insightful to post other than I just can't stop listening to it. Excited to dive into their back catalog. Can't wait to see them live, hopefully! Favorite track: Enter The Loop.

about

WITCH RIPPER have created a loving pastiche of the legendary pulp science fiction stories of old. The story told on their sophomore full-length "The Flight after the Fall" has all those tasty ingredients: a mad professor, his dying wife, cryogenic chambers, a black hole as well as themes of love, failure, loss, and acceptance. Musically, WITCH RIPPER have packed "The Flight After the Fall" with as much aggression and barely tamed electricity as anybody knowing them would expect, but there are also fleetly intricate guitar interplay, touches of subtle synth, and cosmic atmospherics as well as unshakably catchy clean vocal hooks. In short, WITCH RIPPER maintain their brutal roots while embracing the arena rock bombast of QUEEN and DAVID BOWIE, the exuberant modern prog of COHEED AND CAMBRIA, and MUSE. Born and raised in the city of grey skies and loud music, Seattle in 2012, Washington's WITCH RIPPER have seamlessly welded together the contemporary heaviness of such hard-hitting acts as MASTODON, GOJIRA, and BARONESS with the anthemic bombast of classic artists in the vein of QUEEN and DAVID BOWIE from the start. WITCH RIPPER approach their music in true American fashion: big riffs, bigger hooks, and damn, that drummer! With "The Flight After the Fall", this heavy Seattle outfit re-emerge boldly into the guitar-driven US metal scene.

This is Ruby the Hatchet's best album so far. Not only are the songs absolutely killer, but it's the first album they've made in which Jillian's vocals aren't buried in the mix. She has an amazing voice, so it's wonderful to be able to finally hear her in full! Jarretr

Take a trip into cosmic space, follow the sensational sound of which is Seeds and feel the power of the Domkraft riffage. Did not think that this band could get any better but they have shot straight through the stratosphere with this superb album. Darknight
