It's time for a retro deep dive on the Didn't Go Platinum podcast. Regular host Tim Bolitho-Jones is joined by rock journalist Naomi Sanders to discuss Witchcraft Destroys Minds And Reap Souls, the controversial debut album by Satanic prog-rockers Coven.

Released all the way back in February 1969, this is one of rock history's greatest 'What If' stories. Witchcraft Reaps Minds... predates the first Black Sabbath album, but was pulled from sale in the midst of a wider Satanic panic in US culture. This album wasn't officially released for decades and was only available as a bootleg, but went on to have a massive influence on artists like Nirvana and King Diamond.

Tim and Naomi explore the history of the band, discuss what may have happened if Coven had been as popular as Black Sabbath, and explore the legacy of an album that never really got its due.
