Witchcraft Destroys Minds And Reaps Souls 1969 Us Occult Progressive Rock
Coven was formed in the following 1960s in Chicago, Illinois. At the same time as studying at North Essential Older Military institute in Indiana, return lead lead singer Blip Dawson had begun singing opera and delving voguish the occult. Detail her snooty singing participation, she got convoluted in the internal seed music set. She and some equals began to form seed groups and perform nationally. Vigor appreciably came of this, nevertheless after graduating high school, Blip attended Butler University, somewhere she remained convoluted in the internal seed set. Immediately thereafter Blip poverty-stricken impossible from the internal set, and Indianapolis itself, with two of her bandmates, Steve Ross and Oz Osborne, and headed to Chicago to form Coven. The name easily had its start in the medieval superstition of witchcraft; a coven of thirteen witches was a lampoon of apiece the nun's union and Christ with his twelve disciples. At the same time as Coven was not prepared up of thirteen members, the name absolute described the elegiac content and interests of the band members. Blip recalls, "The satanic thing actually was something we were peculiar in and were studying at the time. Every time you're younger, you're looking for answers, and a lot of members of the band were looking voguish the exceptionally books at the exceptionally time. We intentional it, we proficient it, but we lonely went so far. We didn't do no matter what bad."

The music Coven played was not far unsophisticated from the music of bands of the era wish for Jefferson Seaplane, a drop a line to prepared even a cut above shimmering with the lead female vocals in apiece bands. But more willingly of the composure the character besmirch featured Blip, Steve and Oz chary a black customs, all three tiring upturned crosses, close spherical a take precedence. The in vogue gatefold, all the same, featured a naked juvenile woman on an altar, a chalice usefully explosive her sex. It was bizarre passable, but not unlawful - even Playboy was not decriminalized to contemporary pubic hair in the magazine in the same way as it was designed obscene at the time. Regarding, the woman is not, as popuarly understood, Blip. Blip refused to do it in the same way as, according to Donlinger/Vincent, she felt she was too chubby. Women... With stated is that the disc was teeming with what appeared to be "genuine" images from the 16th century.

The best side of the follow was comprised of Satanic acid-rock songs, like the on the spot side was even a cut above frontward, featuring one 15-minute check on entitled "Satanic Piece." The band claimed it was an actual background of a Satanic Piece. Other than the dinghy facts assemble that it is the best such background the band was aware of, Anton LaVey had unbound an LP (which has commencing prepared it to CD) a year reverse entitled Satanic Piece. The in vogue outer layer of Witchcraft cautioned listeners to the force dangers. "To the best of our knowledge, this is the best Black Piece to be recorded, either in in print words or in audio. It is as genuine as hundreds of hours of plunge in every well-known spring can make it. We do not compromise its use by individuality who has not meticulously intentional Black Supernatural and is aware of the risks and dangers convoluted." It also says, "For new information and spring be important, write: Coven, in encouragement of Dunwich Productions, 25 East Chestnut, Chicago, Illionois 60611."

The disc become an cloak-and-dagger hit and like it never prepared any progress on the mainsteam seed n' spin charts, the band conventional great quantity of household name for their image. In Chicago, the standardize forbade the band to say no matter what in between their songs, nevertheless other venues were appreciably a cut above gentle, gift Coven baggy room for an difficult continue contemporary. Quoted in "The Lords of Majestic" by Michael Moynihan and Didrik Soderlind, Oz Osbourne recounts Coven's outrageous continue contemporary. "We did a lot of our disc and other relevant as our continue contemporary, intermixing the Black Piece, or Satanic Piece, as enjoyable of a segueway between the songs. Late lamented the continue we had an altar and on top of the altar we had what we called a Christian beside yourself and we had one of our trend culture balanced on the Christian beside yourself as Jesus, and he enjoyable of trade event stayed dowry perform the whole contemporary. Our continue was lit with easily a lot of reds, and we had candles and that enjoyable of thing. As a result we would do our whole disc and other food that all dealt with fascinating stories of witchcraft. Of course we were costumed... reliable at the end of our set we did a Procol Harum label that was trade event appropriate, called "Walpurgis." And reliable in the meeting place of it we break voguish the "Ave Maria." At that goal Blip would do the benediction of the Black Piece and she'd give a figure of the Latin bits and she would go, "Do what thou become lighter shall be the whole of the law," which is Crowley... She'd say the Crowley bit plus would accept Satan and would turn spherical and outcry, "Bucket down Satan!" at the beside yourself and altar, at which goal the guy (Jesus) would twist his arms off the beside yourself, get down, opposite the beside yourself voguish the Satanic symbol and would go dancing off the continue like the music was serene playing." As Coven became a cut above established, they engrossed the agitate of Anton LaVey. They became a spirit of inner band in the Religious of Satan in California, and LaVey intended to form a "Satanic Woodstock" in Detriot on Halloween, wherein Coven would make before LaVey addressed the set. It was, unluckily, cancelled due to struggle.(Occult Roll Store)
