In 1998 , Gothenburg, Sweden's WITCHERY grabbed the entire metal scene by the throat when NECROPOLIS RECORDS unleashed their matchless debut album. "Restless & Dead" garnered ONLY positive reviews as well as very impressive sales figures. After being engulfed in an avalanche of acclaim from metal journalists and fans around the globe, WITCHERY quickly gained a reputation as a metal force to be reckoned with. Voted best newcomer of the year in Finland as well as getting several album of the month, and year, accolades from metal press in every corner of the globe, WITCHERY kept charging onward into metal glory by releasing an incredible MCD entitled ‘Witchburner'. This release went on to prove that this phenomenon cannot be stopped! WITCHERY again chose BLUE HILL Studios to capture the violent energy that this nightmarish quintet has created for "Dead, Hot, and Ready". The Riff-master General himself, Patrik Jensen (The Haunted, Seance) and WITCHERY have turned out another "soon-to-be-legendary" album, loaded with memorable riffs, masterful songwriting, and that "real" metal feeling that was lost ages ago! Once again ‘Dead, Hot and Ready' will show WITCHERY's growing legions of fans that they are a band that continues to innovate and bring fresh, new ideas to a tired genre. After playing WACKEN and touring the US with Norway's EMPEROR, WITCHERY have proven that real metal is here to stay! "ARE YOU... READY?"
