Stoners and riff-enjoyers, rejoice! Electrical Wizard is slated to launch their first new studio album since 2017’s Wizard Bloody Wizard someday this yr.
Particulars stay murky concerning the launch, although Electrical Wizard guitarist and vocalist Jus Oborn revealed the album’s existence in a latest interview with It is Psychedelic Child Journal. The brand new document follows Electrical Wizard‘s 2024 reside album Black Magic Rituals & Perversions Vol. 1, which was launched in December.
“Properly, we even have a brand new album coming subsequent yr. Sure, this reside LP was simply an ‘providing,’ a ‘reward’ (possibly even a contractual obligation, haha) to you whilst you patiently await our new recordings,” mentioned Oborn “I can not see us doing multiple LP ever once more, so we’re ensuring it is bloody good. And bloody heavy.”
On what he is been listening on just lately, Oborn additionally revealed he is been largely into the heavier facet of krautrock. Although I am undecided we will count on a krautrock-flavored Electrical Wizard document – that may get slightly bizarre.
“Fuck, because the pandemic I went loopy rediscovering and digging new shit. Today, a number of krautrock. I really like Jeronimo, Start Management, Asterix, Silberbart, Wind, Scorpions, and many others.—nicely, primarily the heavy guitar stuff. I don’t actually just like the spacey hippy stuff, haha, besides Amon Düül II. They’re fucking evil and peculiar. My tastes by no means run removed from ’70s heavy steel, actually, haha, with some black steel or ELP each on occasion.”
