For more info and to order, go to THIS LOCATION.
 
SEVEN WITCHES will be supporting legendary metallers ARMORED SAINT on three special East Coast dates later this fall. 

Commented Frost: "I am stoked to do this run of dates with my brothers in Armored Saint. This is a killer paring for the East Coast, but for me it’s a dream come true. Not only am I a fan of Saint’s music, but there are so many family ties with those guys since Joey Vera for several years played bass -- on albums and live -- in SEVEN WITCHES and he has mastered, engineered, and/or mixed on all the WITCHES albums since Exiled To Infinity And One in 2002. It's gonna be a fun night and WITCHES will try our best to warm you all up for the mighty Saint. This is also a very special for us because it will be a one-time run with this special lineup. We will be playing new music from our latest album Call Upon The Wicked, the classics we are known for, plus dusting off a few we haven’t played in a while."

11/30/2011 Ollie's Point Bar - Amityville, NY

"SEVEN WITCHES is a major force in keeping this style and the roots alive and in ass kicking headbanging metal, this is pure heavy metal thunder the '80s way, anthemic, hellraising, and adrenalizing..." -- Hellride

“Call Upon the Wicked is solid, especially if you’re looking for potent prog-power metal.
" -- Metal Underground

"..a keeper for those who appreciate classic metal." -- Sea Of Tranquility

Commented Frost: "I would just like to say thank you in advance to all of you who have been loyal to SEVEN WITCHES over the years and have waited so patiently for our new release. We also want to tip our hats to the fellow metalheads out there with open minds willing to give a listen to a great new record. Call Upon The Wicked is our latest project, a concept record that was a work in progress. I'm so proud to be releasing such an amazing product of our dedication. The time it took to put out this new addition to the 'WITCHES family, along with the blood, sweat and tears it took to make it, has been nothing but a wonderful experience for us. This album really captured a dream for me, as it is combination of classic SEVEN WITCHES style mixed with many of our greatest influences. I can honestly say that our fans will truly understand the devotion and loyalty we have shown to ourselves and our new music, and they will appreciate this record as much as we do. I am honored to be a part of this release, and thank you all so much for checking out our new baby, Call Upon The Wicked."
