Witchery – The God Who Fell From Earth
Biography
It began in 1997 when their cult band Satanic Slaughter splintered, Witchery started as guitarists Patrik Jensen (The Haunted) and Rille Rimfält, vocalist Toxine, drummer Mique, and bassist Sharlee D’Angelo (Arch Enemy, Mercyful Fate). In 1998 they recorded and released their debut, Restless And Dead by Necropolis Records. Later that year, Witchery released the Witchburner minialbum. The EP featured two originals and four cover songs bearing witness to the individual musicians’ influences. In 1999, Witchery embarked on a U.S. tour with Emperor and Borknagar. Their second full-length album Dead, Hot and Ready was unleashed soon thereafter, and a six-week early 2000 European tour followed. Symphony For The Devil, the band’s 2001 release, was recorded at Berno Studio (Amon Amarth, Dark Funeral) in Malmö, Sweden with new drummer, Martin “Axe” Axenrot (Bloodbath, Opeth). Witchery returned to tour North America later that year with The Haunted. Returning to Berno Studios in 2004, the band recorded Don’t Fear The Reaper, this time entrusting mixing duties to Tue Madsen and his Antfarm Studios (The Haunted, Heaven Shall Burn, Himsa). After recording the album, the band signed a worldwide record deal with Century Media.
In April 2010 accomplished black metal singer Legion (Erik Hagsted, ex-Marduk, ex-Devian) joined the band to replace Toxine who had to drop out because of schedule issues.

NecroPanzer, Caligula's true form cannot be perceived by the human eye without the eyes being burned out of their sockets.

@raptorg Caligula never wears Black Metal outfit, he's actually nude when he plays in Dark Funeral. But sometimes he dresses up as a human...

Diademof12Stars
I agree completely; the first three releases are, by far, the best.
-
Raptorg
Any particular reason why Caligula still wears the black metal outfit? Even in the Sanctification video, where he's just a guest, I found it odd to see this guy in a typical black metal outfit playing with a bunch of guys wearing.. Well, normal clothes and no corpse paint.
