Arkham Witch

Simon and Emily of The Lamp of Thoth formed Arkham Witch in 2008. They recorded a five-song demo that was very well received. After sharing a stage together in many different heavy metal outfits throughout the years, Aldo ‘Dodo’ Delarose, (of the legendary Maltese thrash band Manslaughter, and more recently Yorkshire thrash titans Let ‘em Burn!) and Johnny ‘The Demon’ Demaine were recruited so that the band could play live.

Warning

There are at least five bands with the name Warning. 1. Warning was a UK based doom metal band. Warning flagged the rise of post-2000 wave of traditional doom metal. They were formed by Patrick Walker in 1994 in Harlow, Essex. The band is notable for its down-tempo, progressive, melodic and heavy doom-laden sound; the idiosyncratic and poignant vocals of Patrick Walker; and his introspective, darkly-confessional lyrical themes of acute pain, love, and melancholy nostalgia. The band released two demo tapes, "Revelation Looms" in Feb 1996 and "Blessed By Sabbath" in March 1997.

The River

It started in 1999. The dust in the room began to dance & bask in the amber glow from the valves as the amps began to rumble into life. Adding the battery gave life to the monolith whilst the soothing tones of the voice healed the wounds from the bludgeon. Light from the blocked out windows cast shadows across the walls, the haze only adding to the core of the sound as the aural mantra continued. The constant tapping of the rain outside only added to the rhythm & flow...

Pentagram

There is more than one band with this name: 1) Originating from Arlington, Virginia, United States of America, one of the earliest doom bands around, having been around in one form or another since 1971, it's safe to say that Pentagram had a big impact on Sabbath inspired doom metal that was to follow over the next decade. The band also strongly intertwines with the band Bedemon and is sometimes seen as one and the same.
