WITCH was a Swedish metal band from Umeå (same town as GOTHAM CITY and MOGG). They were heavily influenced by Iron Maiden and Ozzy Osbourne. Through their active years (1981-1985) they recorded 3 demos and a live-tape. WITCH was also featured on the compilation "Helgdagsrock Åt Far (1983)" with the songs "Evil Night" and "White Death." A promo video was also recorded for "Evil Night".
Thei 3rd demo 'Still Alive' was recorded as a pre-production tape for their first official release, an EP entitled "Still Alive" on Tandan Records. Sadly Tandan folded/got bankrupt and it was never released.
WITCH once had a doll nailed to a cross at one of their gigs. This got them classed as devil worshippers by the free churches and they where actually banned to attend some live gigs in Umeå. There was some articles in the Swedish newspaper about this back in the days.
Another fun little detail was when bassist Anders Hedman had organized a music festival (with Witch, Mogg, Gotham City) at the last day of school -83. The concert was interrupted when bands played due to drunkenness, the crowd fighted and vandalized the whole park area. It was a heavenly life on the media. Some articles can be found down the page.

Witch - Soldier of the Future [Demo #4] (1984)
The wrecked record deal took hard on WITCH and for some reason they changed the line-up. The guitarists Tomas and Patrik was replaced with Ulf Johansson. They went to Åsele to record their 4th and last demo 'Soldier of the Future'. Ander's had just bought a Veilette-Citron 8 stringed bass but the mixing was so bad that it could barely be heard in the recording. WITCH later folded.
Henrik Kjellberg are now working with ToonTrack (Drums from Hell).
