Data doom

"A heavy psych juggernaut of an album: Frankie and the Witch Fingers' new album is a heady stew of the loud, the funky and the weird - and it doesn't let up from the first riff to the last. Make no mistake, Data Doom really does have the band firing on all cylinders the whole way through ... [They] have embraced a sound that suggests proto-punkers Blue Oyster Cult at their most forceful getting down with Scandi psychedelicists Goat and it's a total blast. Opening tune, "Empire" has epic stoner riffing and a thunderous groove with a blistering saxophone to add some extra muscle. It's irrepressible stuff".

"Los Angeles' Frankie And The Witch Fingers serve up another dose of electrifying heavy psych on their new album, Data Doom. Across the album's nine tracks, they shift and surge through a haze of deep fuzz, rising from a burning inferno to the sulpher-lined clouds above. But all the while they never forget that the trick is in the groove, in the ability to not only rattle our skeletons but make us move and shake with them. Much like their contemporaries, King Gizzard & The Lizard Wizard, they combine styles to great effect".

"The future may be uncertain, but some constants seem to always ring true: water will be wet, the sky will be blue, the world will be fucked and Frankie and the Witch Fingers will come to conjure sonic chaos. Many a manic sidewalk sermonist has held a reverb-heavy microphone to spread wide-eyed proclamations of the end times, and on their seventh studio album, the Los Angeles-via-Indiana psych rockers do just that - albeit with much greater musical finesse. The dawn of digital dystopia is nigh, and on Data Doom, Frankie and the Witch Fingers walk the line between chameleonic and commanding, wielding endless inventiveness as a weapon to outsmart artificial intelligence".
