Returning to British shores for the first time since last November, WARLOCKS will be accosting audiences nationwide next month with their morbid combination of sound and sense (see dates below).
With the Warlocks you learn to expect the unexpected. Always shrouded in mystery and dressed in black, this once octet are known for their signature sound and live shows, and have been compared a million times to the Velvet Underground’s exploding plastic inevitable. This works through from the ‘Phoenix EP’ and the albums ‘Rising From The Ashes’ and ‘Destroying & Rebuilding’.
Almost at the brink of giving up music completely, leader B.H. found the perfect label to let his art come before song and song come before art. Tee Pee Records (Brian Jonestown Massacre, Witch, Earthless, Entrance), a label know for giving their artists complete creative control, signed the Warlocks with no idea who was in the current line-up and no current band images.
The new stripped-down line up took a matter of weeks to record latest record, ‘Heavy Deavy Skull Lover’, which was released last October to critical acclaim.
