OVERVIEW:
Arkham Thoth or The Lamp of Witch? It can get confusing when the songwriter and the main members (Simon on vocals and Emily on drums) are the same. Well, according to Simon, TLOT has not come back to life, so the decision has been made to release their 3 EPs under the Witch name. Covering the Lamp. "Get Thothed" collectible series. This last part, "Get Thothed Vol. III", is more like a full-length, with 50 minutes playing time and 6 songs - all of them previously unreleased. It comes in cardboard sleeves with insert and booklet with lyrics to all 3 EPs, to be added to the slipcase which came together with "Vol. I" (released in April 2015). All adorned by beautiful and most fitting graphics from the end of 19th century. A must for all die-hard fans of this British metal bunch, and especially for those who prefer their more doomy side (as THE LAMP OF THOTH is definitely more doom than the more straightforward heavy metal ARKHAM WITCH), and for fans of bands like SAINT VITUS, PENTAGRAM, VALHALL, MANILLA ROAD, CIRITH UNGOL, HELL, WITCHFINDER GENERAL, LUCIFER'S FALL, THE WIZAR'D, THE GATES OF SLUMBER...
FOR FANS OF:
• The Lamp of Thoth, Saint Vitus, Pentagram, Valhall, Manilla Road, Cirith Ungol, Hell, Witchfinder General, Lucifer's Fall, The Wizar'd, The Gates of Slumber...
