This Canadian band plays a distinctive brand of flute-tinged witch rock. They keep their music simple and heavy, revealing an infernal marriage of Black Sabbath and the manic piping of Jethro Tull. And yet their songs are tempered with strong, brooding melodies. It is an immediately impressive debut with a supportive fanbase already in tow.
