Honorable Mention at the OnCreations Europe Music Video Awards 2026

Witchcraft is the darkest, heaviest, and most personal Outerburst record to date, a journey through eerie atmospheres, aggressive riffing, and introspective storytelling. This album is our statement, blending heavy music, horror culture, and raw emotion into one relentless experience.

Tracklist and insights:

1. Inception: an instrumental track that sets the spooky, cinematic tone with symphonic layers and signature heavy guitars.
2. Witchcraft: blends fast riffs, haunting arrangements, and huge choirs while questioning whether we truly live life on our own terms or wait for fate to intervene.
3. The Gathering: channels the band’s groovy, doomy side with crushing riffs and melodic vocal layers.
4. Tormented: a frantic, chaotic song inspired by Edgar Allan Poe’s “The Man of the Crowd”.
5. Survival of the Fittest: one of the first melodies ever written, capturing a time of struggle when Outerburst was still an idea born out of personal battles.
6. Bloodshot Eyes: featuring Buzz from Memories of a Lost Soul on vocals, is our scream against cyberbullies and the monsters that crawl into real life through hate and indifference.
7. At The Mountains of Madness: takes listeners deep into Lovecraftian horror with dark soundscapes and a hypnotic guitar solo by Glen Drover (ex-Megadeth, King Diamond).
8. The Fallen Angel Rebirth: envisions the rise of evil as if Satan himself emerged to corrupt mankind among the total indifference for life by all human beings.
9. Phenomena: closes the record with a tribute to the horror soundtracks of Goblin and the chilling influence of Dario Argento’s films.
