Dead Heavens stream debut album
From Whatever Witch You Are
via Dine Alone Records
New York City’s Dead Heavens, the psych-rock project of guitarist and frontman Walter Schreifels (Vanishing Life, Gorilla Biscuits, Rival Schools, Quicksand, and more), Paul Kostabi (Youth Gone Mad, White Zombie, Psychotica), Drew Thomas (Youth of Today, Bold, Into Another), and Nathan Aguilar (Cults), have released their new album Whatever Witch You Aretoday in the UK via Dine Alone Records. Listen and share the full album stream here and purchase here.
Whatever Witch You Are, their first full-length, plays effortlessly as a new-classic blues rock album – a new-millennium Fresh Cream or Let it Bleed – only with sharp-angular sounds, noticeably psych inflections, and melodies that seem wrought out of rebar: strong, pared down, and purposeful at every point. If anything, their musical origins have permitted Dead Heavens to approach blues and psych rock without nostalgia, arriving at an audibly honest sound, stripped of any of the tassels or affectation. The drums hit heavy. The guitars hit heavy. Yet hovering above them both is always Schreifels’ sandier vocals, urging us on through life’s endless freakishness and frustrations.
