Fast forward to 2022, original singer Jeff Allen has reformed the band with guitarist Ken Mandat (Damien Thorne), Bassist Mick Lucid (Viscous Circle), and drummer Gabriel Anthony (Tyrant’s Reign). The new album features 11 hard-hitting tracks which were originally written by the original lineup in the early 80s, but recorded by the new lineup. Stay tuned for big things coming from Witchslayer soon! Jeff joins us to talk about the history of the band, the new release, and plans for 2023.
