L.A. Witch are back with details of a new album Play With Fire, which is out on the 21st August on Suicide Squeeze Records. First taste is with the lyric video for the amped up riffs and slashing fuzz lines of I Wanna Lose which the trio describe as “being about feeling free and feeling stronger because you’ve lost everything and now you’ve got everything to win. … Continue reading L.A.
