Magick Touch

Produced by the band along with SPIDERGAWD’s Per Borten at Sørgården Studio, Cakes & Coffins bristles with a unique energy: while “dark” for MAGICK TOUCH, there’s nevertheless an invigorating / inspiring aspect to the album that keeps it from being a total slit-your-wrists fest. Such is the eternal power & glory of HEAVY METAL. “When the world stopped spinning and went into pandemic panic, it became even clearer that our splendor of living might not endure,” expounds drummer Bård Nordvik. “A bleaker worldview, however, did produce some bright and shimmering hard rock moments that hopefully can inspire to make a better future and even better heavy metal live shows.”

It could be argued that MAGICK TOUCH hit their apex of good-times classicism with Heads Have Got to Rock’n’Roll, but such a zenith simply set the stage for a new one in Cakes & Coffins. “It feels good to finally be back with some new, heavy tunes that also bring something new to the MAGICK TOUCH universe,” states vocalist/guitarist HK Rein.
