Hear an Alternate Side in Session with The Wytches.

When Kristian Bell tested his microphone before our interview he said, "We have assumed control!" Evidently this is his preferred phrase for checking levels because he applauded me as the first person to recognize that he was referencing the Rush album 2112.

It turned out that Kristian and bandmates Daniel Rumsey (who also participated in the interview) and Gianni Honey (who did not) have a lot of influences that might not be immediately plain by listening to the group's debut, Annabel Dream Reader. This makes for a rich and rewarding listening experience beyond the Black Sabbath and Misfits foundation that their name suggests.

Spend some time with Bell – who loves his whammy bar – and the rest of this analog-over-digital English trio.
