Slung’s recent single ‘Fire to Burn’ has a whole new life breathed into it today as the band have unleashed a live session filmed at The Bookhouse Studio in London. Vocalist Katie Oldham’s commanding delivery epicly carries the intense story within the music, which conjures shades of Red Fang, Baroness and Mastodon.

The witchcraft within the track’s essence is undeniable as Oldham explains:

“Throughout the whole process of writing this track there seemed to be this kind of mystical guiding force nudging it away from being anything other than what we ended up with. When the final vocal melody mainlined into my brain from this mysterious otherworldly donor, I instantly knew the lyrics needed to be about witchcraft.

Our bassist Vlad had recently learned a tale about an ancestor of his who was regarded as a ‘superwitch’ in her village and the townsfolk would go to her for healing with herbs and medicines. That was until fear and hatred gripped the people and they eventually turned against her, forming a mob to drive her from her home and execute her.”
