About Witchhammer

Witchhammer is a seminal Norwegian heavy metal band that emerged from the underground scene in 1986, forging a raw and enduring sound that has spanned nearly four decades. Their landmark debut album, *1487* (1990), established their uncompromising musical identity and remains a fan favorite. Over the years, Witchhammer has continued to evolve with notable releases such as *The Lost Tapes* (2001) and *Chapter 3: In Serenity And Awe*, alongside the powerful single "From Hell" (2014).

A significant moment in their recent history came in the summer of 2023 when Johnny Angelund, renowned for his work with Karmøygeddon, invited Witchhammer to perform the entire *1487* album live at Heavy Nights. This event sparked a reunion that brought back vocalist Thomas Arntzen Dahl, who had been an integral part of the band between 2010 and 2012. The reconnection revitalized the group’s creative energy, motivating them to revisit classic material and explore unreleased tracks from their archives.

The current lineup features Tor Erik "Totto" Håkonsen and Morten Skute on guitars, Jan Erik "Gokki" Eide on drums, Finn Gjerlaugsen on bass, Thomas Arntzen Dahl on vocals, and Marlyn Åstrøm contributing both keyboards and vocals. Adding to their legacy, Witchhammer recently released the original 2012 recording of "Save Me," expertly mixed and mastered, underscoring their lasting impact. With a rich catalog and renewed vitality, Witchhammer continues to captivate both longtime followers and new metal enthusiasts alike.
