History


Bell Witch was formed in 2010 by Dylan Desmond and Adrian Guerra.[2] In 2011, the group created a four-track demo that was released through a number of small record labels.[5] With the success of that release, Bell Witch went on to create their first two studio albums, Longing (2012) and Four Phantoms (2015). In 2016, drummer and co-founding member Adrian Guerra died, shortly after being replaced by Jesse Shreibman on drums.[6]

Less than a year later, Bell Witch released their third album, Mirror Reaper (2017), to critical acclaim.[7] The album features vocals from Guerra that had been left over from the Four Phantoms sessions[8] and acts as a tribute to him.[9] Notably, Mirror Reaper comprises one 84-minute song of the same name.[10] Mirror Reaper received significant national coverage, appearing on a number of year-end lists.[11][12][13][14]

After performing vocals in the second half of Mirror Reaper,[15] Erik Moggridge of Aerial Ruin collaborated with Bell Witch on their fourth album, Stygian Bough Volume 1 (2020).[16]
