Description
Witchfinder General formed in 1979 and were part of the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWoBHM) movement during the early 1980s. They are strongly influenced by Black Sabbath, and are widely recognised today as one of the pioneers of the doom metal style. Their importance became acknowledged mostly after they disbanded. The band (minus vocalist Zeeb Parkes) reformed in November 2006, with new vocalist Gary Martin. They plan to record a new album, entitled Resurrected, likely released sometime in 2007. The band has stated they will not perform live again.
