WICCA. Spells, Magic And Witchcraft Through The Ages (CD)
Wicca is the second album by the Peruvian doom trio EL HIJO DE LA AURORA which consists now of Joaquin Cuadra (drums, fx), Manolo Garfias (guitar, bass), and Rafael Cantoni (lead vocals). It is about "spells, magic and witchcraft through the ages", and inspired, as you might guess, by Wiccan views of divinity, esoteric and philosophical books, as well as old horror movies. The music is noticeably different from their debut work. Based on groovy riffing combined with the lively drum work and emotional singing in Spanish, it is more song-oriented, more focused, intense, and heavier. All songs are well rooted in the 70's heavy-rock tradition and deliver lots of threatening vibes. Most of the tracks feature guest appearances from Tania Duarte, Marcos Coifman, and Julio Almeida of REINO ERMITANO on vocals, Saul Cornejo of LAGHONIA and Miguel Yance on Hammond and moog. The band explores psychedelic-doom or occult-doom sound concept but definitely flavor their stew with some original and uncommon spices.
