Former Members Of GUNS N\' ROSES, DIO, W.A.S.P Appear On WITCH Reissue
Witch shared the stages with such notable artists like SLAYER, W.A.S.P, MEGADETH, GREAT WHITE, LIZZY BORDEN, MSG, POISON, GUNS N' ROSES, EXCITER, YNGWIE MALMSTEEN, STRYPER, GRIM REAPER, LOUDNESS, STEELER, MALICE, ODIN, KEEL, WARLOCK and many other bands of the era.
Witch drummer Punky Peru states: “We wanted something heavy yet theatrical...We were trying to take part of our influences from Alice Cooper and The Sweet and mix it together with MOTÖRHEAD and DIO. The outcome was Witch.”
The tracks on The Hex Is On...And Then Some have been given a full overhaul and sound better than they ever have. Peter Wabitt proclaims, "This album finally sounds the way I always imagined it would sound. If it would've sounded this way when it first came out, we would've sold a lot more copies."
With updated artwork, the album features a Peter Wabbitt interpretation of Shakespeare's MacBeth, followed by the remastered versions of The Hex Is On, the mega-rare 'Nobody Sleeps' 12" two track single, and the Rock Climbers compilation only track 1:45. Added to the stellar tracklist is the 1988 demo for a Witch track entitled 'Take Me Away'. The last nine tracks of the Hex Is On...And Then Some represent the 1997 regathering of Peter Wabbitt and Punky Peru. Recording together for the first time in nearly a decade, we get to see the pure magic that results when these two unite. A more current version of the Witch song Take Me Away appears along with eight other tunes featuring such great guest musicians as: Slash (Guns N' Roses), Steve Stevens (BILLY DOL), Chris Holmes (W.A.S.P.), Rowan Robertson (Dio), and Keith Emerson (ELP).
