Rising in 2009 from depths of Australia's promising underground metal scene, dark metal outfit Witchgrinder took off taking the country by storm. Taking their cues from 80’s and 90's era of metal and some industrial sounds, Witchgrinder derive their songs from the classic horror/sci-fi stories. Blending infectious riffs, powerhouse drumming and catchy structures, with blood curdling screams and tortured growls, Witchgrinder has been terrorising audiences around the country with their dominant and vigorous live performances. “They had a clean heavy sound with solid chords and quality riffs. Their stage presence was genuine without being arrogant, which is an attribute I very much admire in a band.” – Amber Rose, Metal Obsession (Witchgrinder supporting Ghost, Melbourne, 22 January 2014). Witchgrinder has shared the stage with Wednesday 13, Ghost, Drowning Pool, Hanzel Und Gretyl, Entombed A.D. (in Japan), Ace Frehley, and Suicide Girls as well as successfully headlining their own tours. The band has played sold out festivals across Australia, received regular airplay and national endorsements. They released their debut album The Demon Calling in 2013 “The Demon Calling is an enthralling, exhilarating ride through forty minutes of some of the most excitingly consuming metal you’ll hear all year; definitely worthy of your consideration, it’s a must have in any self-respecting metal collection.” – Scott Adams, Editor, Metal As Fuck. Witchgrinder released their second album Haunted, which was released on 31 July 2015 through Firestarter Distribution. "Melbourne thrash metallers Witchgrinder have followed their impressive 2013 debut with something even better, tightening up the four-piece's savage vocals, powerhouse kitwork and brutal guitar chugs into a sleek, structured foray into the dark that still assaults in all the right places" - Carley Hall, Editor, The Music Connect with Witchgrinder: Website: http://www.witchgrinder.com Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/witchgrinder Twitter: https://twitter.com/witchgrinder Instagram: https://instagram.com/witchgrinder Vimeo: https://vimeo.com/witchgrinder YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/user/witchgrindervision Store: www.witchgrinder.bigcartel.com Witchgrinder music is available from: http://witchgrinder.bandcamp.com Also available on iTunes, Spotify, Google Play, Amazon Music & more *Through the Eyes of the Dead" Ep 2010 "The Demon Calling" Lp 2013 "Haunted" Lp 2015 *They Walk Among Us" Single 2017 Witchgrinder EPK: http://www.sonicbids.com/witchgrinder Witchgrinder Store: http://www.witchgrinder.bigcartel.com For all management/booking enquiries contact: info@witchgrinder.com Metal / Industrial www.witchgrinder.bigcartel.com
