Bell Witch

D

oom metal act Bell Witch appeared on the scene in 2010 with their self-titled demo under the membership of Dylan Desmond (bass/vocals) and Adrian Guerra (R.I.P. 2016; drums/vocals). It wouldn't be long before they achieved their first studio albums in the form of Longing (2012) and Four Phantoms (2015). For Mirror Reaper (2017) and Future's Shadow Part 1: The Clandestine Gate (2023), the first of a trillogy, Jesse Shreibman moved in on drums/organ and vocals. Mirror Reaper was the album that broke the band as it received critical acclaim. The album features one 84 minute track of the same name with vocals from Guerra that had been left over from the Four Phantoms sessions, acting as a tribute to him. A year earlier the band released Stygian Bough: Volume I a collaboration with Aerial Ruin.
