The double-header international metal force that is savage aural barbarians CONAN and spellbinding sonic summoners BELL WITCH have announced they will be storming our shores, for shows at Wellington’s Valhalla and Auckland’s Whammy Bar in November. Hailing from Liverpool and Seattle respectively, the bands occupy opposite ends of the slow-pentatonic-riff spectrum. While Conan specialises in medieval savagery, as witnessed on their 2016 offering Revengeance, Bell Witch oozes with ethereality and otherworldliness, as seen on last year’s eighty four minute epic Mirror Reaper.
