2007 compilation by the UK Metal/Hard Rock band. The songs on this collection are all drawn from the band"s first three records (Give "Em Hell, Stagefright and Cloak & Dagger) and date from the heady days of the NWOBHM. Not only are they a testament to the band"s tenacity and invincibility, but also a snapshot of a golden age of Metal. By the time the New Wave Of British Heavy Metal was hitting its stride in the early months of 1980, Witchfynde had become an overnight sensation, despite the fact that they"d been slogging away since the mid-"70s, sticking to their Metal guns and weathering the years of Punk like so many of those early NWOBHM acts. Trekking around the UK on a forty-or-so date club tour supporting Def Leppard brought them to the eyes and ears of a large number of new fans, and reports of stunning live performances and an exciting debut album greatly enhanced their reputation. Influenced by occult 70"s bands like Black Sabbath and Black Widow, they took their concept one stage further and even today new generation doomsters like Paradise Lost still praise the name of Witchfynde.
