About Burning Witches
Burning Witches is a Swiss heavy metal band that formed in 2014, built on the kind of straightforward metal philosophy that doesn't require much explanation: fast riffs, loud and clear production, and a vocalist who can actually hit her notes. They've carved out a solid lane in modern heavy metal without pretending to be something they're not. Their earlier work established them as competent practitioners of classic heavy metal aesthetics—think late-80s production clarity applied to genuine songwriting. Songs like "Hexenhammer" and "Arson" showcase the band's ability to write hooks that stick around after the song ends, which is rarer in heavy metal than it should be. They're the kind of band that appeals to people who actually like metal rather than the idea of metal, with a focused approach that respects the listener's time.
Their shows are straightforward metal gigs—tight, competent, and heavy. Crowds stay engaged because the band isn't phoning it in. No surprise flourishes or stage production theater, just solid execution that makes the material land harder in a room full of people.
Known for Hexenhammer, Arson, The Crucible, Conjuration, Torched

Live Music in Boston
Boston's metal scene has always had its own thing going — less about trends, more about substance. The city's got deep roots in hardcore and metal, places like the Sinclair and Great Scott drawing serious musicians who don't care about being fashionable. Burning Witches fit that vibe perfectly: pure heavy metal craft with no apologies. Boston tends to respect that.
Boston road trip to see Burning Witches?
Stay in the Back Bay neighborhood—it's walkable, lined with brownstones, and positioned between the best dining and the waterfront. Book a table at No. 9 Park for New American cooking that actually justifies the hype, or hit Oleana in nearby Cambridge if you want something fresher and less fussy. Spend an afternoon at the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, a genuinely strange and rewarding art collection housed in a deliberately eccentric mansion. The Prudential Center has decent shopping if that's your thing, and the waterfront is legitimately beautiful for a walk before the show.
