Set yer Phasers to FUZZ!!!!

Hastings Noise wizzards WYTCH PYCKNYCK bring their Post Punk Garage JunkshopRock on their debut album.  Released through Property of the Lost, Friday June 21st.

‘Guitar Filth with the Crank of the Desert rock Scene’ -LouderThanWar.

“Stoner Music for speed freaks” – Shin Dig Mag

They are not one of those bands you see playing a lot of local gigs, but every now and again big day glo posters of snakes and demons and skulls will appear around town resulting in packed to the rafters shows, blending 70’s / 90’s guitars into a fierce lo-fi stoner, psychedelic, garage rock brawl.

After releasing “Columbo No.5” last September, the band went into the infamous Tunbridge Wells Forum to record their debut album.  Having never recorded a debut album before, perhaps the idea of nailing it in 5 days may have been optimistic but with the budget blown and the studio engineer committed to other work for the rest of the year the band were left scratching their heads.

They knew a local bee keeper was the mother of a producer who was raised on metal but recently had engineering credits with artists such as Stefflon Don, Stormzy and Skepta…

…..   A call was made, and Jake Jones delivered!

Infact, “Delivered” is an under statement.. The album has been swamped with fantastic reviews..

Wytch Pycknyck are LOUD but maintain a trashy garage feel.  Songs like Rawkuss, almost distort with the guitar cacophony hitting the redlight in parts, with Frostbite a spoken word / rap intro metamorphosis into a space rock psychedelic wig out with bassist Ewans Fitsgerald’s passion for analogue synths coming to the fore.   

Sometimes the guitars shred and sometimes the bass takes pole position.  Two and half minute thrash outs sit shoulder to shoulder with nine-minute psych monsters AND it all makes sense.
