"Wizard Tattoo creates genre-defying music that blends
doom, stoner rock, jazz, black metal and grunge. With
their music, Wizard Tattoo captivates with haunting
melodies, heavy riffs, and introspective lyrics inspired
by comics, horror, and fantasy. Their DIY approach
showcases their commitment, balancing heaviness and
melody for an unforgettable experience."
Wizard Tattoo, the brainchild of multi-instrumentalist
Bram the Bard, is excited to announce the release of
their full-length album Living Just for Knife Fighting
on December 6, 2024. This album combines the visceral
energy of the recently released EP One of These Knives
(tracks 5-8) and the dark, introspective Living Just for
Dying EP (tracks 1-4) into one cohesive and powerful
listening experience.
But that's not all-Living Just for Knife Fighting also
features three exclusive cover tracks that add an
innovative twist to the Wizard Tattoo sound:
-"In the Meantime" (originally by Helmet) - Vocals by
Bram the Bard
-"Dirty Black Summer" (originally by Danzig) - Vocals by
Djinnifer
-"Orgasmatron" (originally by Motörhead) - Vocals by
Fausto Aurelius
A Unified Album with New Surprises
While some fans may already be familiar with both EPs,
Living Just for Knife Fighting takes them to the next
level by offering new material alongside the previously
released tracks. The album brings together the intricate
storytelling and genre-blending that defines Wizard
Tattoo, weaving together doom, stoner metal, psych rock,
prog rock, and a unique narrative vision. These new
cover tracks aren't just add-ons-they offer a dynamic
interpretation of iconic songs, creating an album that
feels both familiar and completely new.
A Journey Through Dark Landscapes
Living Just for Knife Fighting isn't just a combination
of two EPs-it's the culmination of Wizard Tattoo's
journey throughout 2024. The album explores dark,
fantastical themes through tracks like "Varsak of Man"
from One of These Knives and "The Wizard Who Loved Me"
from Living Just for Dying, creating an experience that
is at once heavy, diverse, and deeply atmospheric.
A Must-Listen for Fans of Doom, Stoner Metal, and More
For fans who have supported Wizard Tattoo's journey
through Living Just for Dying and One of These Knives,
this album offers something new and exciting, while
still remaining true to the heavy, experimental core of
Wizard Tattoo's sound. With these new covers, the album
is a perfect bridge between Bram the Bard's original
music and his influences.
"A sonic Tarantino flick with all the appropriate
swagger."- Jeger, MetalBite
"Its release marks a new era for the prog rock legends
as they combine sounds of the past with experimental
elements of the present." - Erineah Quan, Glasse Factory
