(S3E19) – Witch Ripper

There are a bunch of great records dropping on April 10, 2026, but the one that may wind up being my favorite is album number three from Seattle’s metal/prog/sludge juggernaut Witch Ripper! So we here at Rich & Turbo’s Heavy Half Hour are pumped to have band founder/guitarist/vocalist Curtis Parker join the show (S3E19)! We talk all about said new album, titled Through The Hourglass, brought to us by Magnetic Eye Records (preorder here) that continues the storyline started on their last record, The Flight After The Fall, that was high up on 2023’s year end list. We talk about details of the new one, how the band writes, why the Mastodon comparison is fair, but lazy, and we get all sorts of proggy. Curtis was great, the new record rules, and our chat was so much fun. Please check it out, and if you would, please subscribe to the channel!
