  1. Doom metal fans will certainly approve of Witch's self-titled debut.
  2. Alternative Press
    80
    A bona-fide motherfucker of a stoner jam. [May 2006, p.170]
  3. Blender
    60
    Unusually crafty for a stoner-rock record. [May 2006, p.111]
  4. There's something really interesting about the way these two conflicting styles fit together here, a groove for headbangers with flowers in their hair.
  5. Mojo
    60
    An exercise in monolithic heaviness. [May 2006, p.98]
  6. It's speaker-shakingly loud yet somehow far too chilled-out to be anything but background music.
  7. There's an energy and charisma in this dosage that I find lacking in some of the younger contemporaries.
  8. This is essentially one solid, irresistible 40-minute groove.
  9. What does all this mean to the casual music fan? Invest in a reissue of Jeff Beck's Truth.
  10. Witch manage to do a lot more in forty minutes with little more than a bunch of badass riffs and a decent rhythm section than most metal bands these days can do with seventy minutes.
  11. Witch is a solid heavy metal album that is nearly as much fun to listen to as it probably was to record.
  12. Uncut
    70
    It manages to be forceful and intricate in equal amounts. [May 2006, p.129]
  13. Under The Radar
    70
    It is the kind of stuff that might seem ironic if it didn't sound so authentic. [#13, p.98]
