NIGHTBITCH – Yes, NIGHTBITCH. Don’t let the album cover nor the band name fool you for one Metal second. This is NOT an amateur band that is playing out of a remote barn in the middle of Goshen, Connecticut; a place where nobody cares about anything else except stone walls being built against code. This is NIGHBITCH and their 3 song EP, Chainmaker, is so F’n potent that it’s a Metal gift from the Metal Gods; straight from Middle Earth.

ALL 3 songs are like tapping into a keg of Metal whoop-ass and then drinking from said keg!! There’s nothing mathematical about the way NIGHTBITCH plays their Metal; nor is there one micro-second of bullshit to hear. NIGHTBITCH covers the Deep Purple classic, Into The Fire, in jaw dropping Metal style. These 3 songs have kicked my Metal lovin’ ass into submission and I NEED to hear a full-length studio album from these dudes NOW!!

By now you MUST realize that NIGHTBITCH’s Chainmaker EP is Stone’s METAL Pick Of The day!

Connecticut is a Metal state. I know, cause I once lived there for the better part of my Metal lovin’ life. NIGHTBITCH is the Metal Rottweiler of Connecticut… just waiting in the dark to become unleashed upon ALL your Metal souls. If there’s such a thing known as Dark Power Sleaze Doom, then it’s NIGHTBITCH. I’m gonna continue to be street about NIGHTBITCH and end it all with: holy shit this band doesn’t fuck around. Metal be thy name.

NIGHTBITCH BIO:

NIGHTBITCH formed in the summer of 2009 when Ipsissimus guitarist Ryan “His Emissary” Adams sought an outlet to reconcile his late-bloomer discovery of Ritchie Blackmore’s majestic emanations with his obsession for sleazy 70′s occult / exploitation films and plagiarized Danzig riffs. Adams soon hooked up with celebrated Doom Metal vocalist Phil Swanson (Hour of 13, Seamount, Vestal Claret and many more) through mutual friend Bill Connnolly (whose No Visible Scars label would expose the world to NIGHTBITCH via the Sex and Magic cassette). The band was quickly rounded out by the formidable rhythm section of longtime friends and veteran CT musicians Chris Taylor (Kingdom of Sorrow) and Mark Else (De Omega) on drums and bass, respectively.

In September 2010, after gigs opening for such heavyweights as Pentagram, Black Pyramid, Earthride and Midnight, NIGHTBITCH traveled to Dublin, Ireland as the back-up band for Hour of 13′s live debut at the Dublin Doom Day, playing its own gig as a part of the warm-up festivities. The band brought with it the Sex and Magic cassette, which would sell out of all 100 copies within a month of its release.

Upon returning from Dublin, NIGHTBITCH and Swanson amicably parted ways and Taylor assumed vocal duties. In December, Cyclopean Records issued Sex and Magic on vinyl limited to 350 copies, which also sold out in one month’s time. Analog formats exhausted, Sex and Magic has since entered the digital realm via Austria’s Psychedoomelic Records, where it counts the godly Reverend Bizarre among its labelmates.

With Taylor at the helm, NIGHTBITCH has composed eleven infernal odes to comprise its full-length debut and is set to release the Chainmaker EP to showcase the depravity to follow. Chainmaker contains the originals “Chainmaker” and “Disrober”, closing with a reverent cover of Deep Purple’s “Into the Fire”. It will be released as a one-sided vinyl 12″ by Ear One Productions in a limited edition of 250.

The band is currently courting distributors for both releases as well as labels interested in the full-length, all while continuing to play out, spreading its Hell-ordained gospel of traditional heavy fucking metal… riffs and sleaze with a sensual, occult bent.
