Listen: The Wytches – “Wide At Midnight”
Brighton psych-noir trio The Wytches conjure up another thunderous purge of menacing lysergic-doused darkness.
Dusky and dark – bar the occasional flitter of tambourine – The Wytches’ sinister AA-side track “Wide At Midnight”’s sordid reverberations tumble across the setting of snarling guitars, ensnaring the listener in a web of unhinged, vociferous and shrill screeching from frontman Kristian Bell.
From the slowly sauntering, cool and steady rumblings that comprise the opening of the track to its ascendance into a blackened mesh of thundering and wailing expulsions and writhing guitar, “Wide At Midnight” is an enchanting concoction of angsty black-lacquered psych.
AA-side single “Robe For Juda”/”Wide At Midnight” will be released on the 18 November via Hate Hate Hate on limited 7” (500 copies).
