Cruachan have launched an Olga Kuzmenko-created new music video for "The Witch", the song off their recently released album The Living And The Dead. This song is featuring guest performance by guitarist Stu La Rage Dixon of Venom.




Founder and mastermind Keith Fay says: "The Witch is for all Cruachan's female fans. The song was written as an homage to all the warrior women out there, I felt a Pagan Forest Witch represents the ultimate in feminine power - independent and strong, you don't mess with her. When I wrote the words, I intended that the music had to be something special. I wanted something that a lot of people, maybe even people not into metal, would listen to. One of the greatest Irish rock bands of all time is Thin Lizzy and I decided the music would be written in their style. It's not a rip off, you won't hear the riffs in The Witch in any Thin Lizzy song but you can definitely hear the Lizzy vibe throughout. We further added to the 'cool' by having Stu 'La Rage' Dixon from the legendary Venom perform a guest guitar solo on the song."
