Electric Wizard To Release Double Live Album

Legendary British doom outfit, ELECTRIC WIZARD, will release ‘Black Magic Rituals and Perversions Vol. 1,’ a new 2-disc live-to-tape album, on December 13th via Spinefarm Records.

“It's raw as f**k,” boasts Jus Osborn. “It’s like a lost ’70s black metal demo rehearsal session or something. It’s raw, nasty, screaming in your face. I always promised ELECTRIC WIZARD was like rats in your face. This is verging on it.”

The set was recorded mid-pandemic in the band's jam space where Osborn and guitarist Liz Buckingham live. It's their attempt at capturing the feeling of classic live albums such as Motörhead’s No Sleep 'til Hammersmith and KISS' ALIVE!.

“We’d been gigging for two years at that point, around America three times, going to Japan and Australia, and we were sounding pretty good by the end of it,” adds Jus. “When the pandemic happened we thought, ‘F**k it, maybe we’ll never play again.’ So we went into the jam room and played the songs to get them on tape to capture how we were playing at the time.”
