Natthammer — The Hammer of the Witch Review

As soon as the listener presses the play button, the opening song, Don’t Burn The Witch, greets the listener with an audio clip and build-up of the instrumentation and vocals….

As you continue your musical journey with Natthammer, the second song, Steel Warrior, and the remaining five songs take the listener back to the old days of heavy metal—a heavy metal that was straight to the point… music that played loud, heavy, anthem-driven, headbanging, and fist-pumping.

Natthammer is a band that has recently caught my attention. Originating from Peru, they belong to a region known for producing the fruit of art, metal, and rock music. Having experienced many bands from South America, I can confidently say that they never disappoint. The most exciting aspect of Natthammer is that female musician Nátima Natthammer fronts this fruit of art. Female-fronted groups/projects have always captivated my heavy-metal heart and mind; Natthammer is no exception.

The Hammer Of The Witch is an art musical fruit, boasting expertly crafted production and sound. Overall, the music has an old-school, raw vibe that adds an extra layer of depth to the overall sound, with a bat-out-of-hell sound and music—a sound coming out from the nine circles of hell.

This unique blend of Accept meets the influence of Warlock/Doro and adds a whole extra dimension to the music. I want to mention that the third track, Evil Nightmare, has some parts that remind you of the legendary Judas Priest.

Natthammer music has a powerful sound that blends elements of Accept and Warlock, as mentioned above. While the music carries more of the influence of Warlock/Doro, it still has its own unique identity. This charm is achieved without sounding too much like Warlock/Doro, even though Natthammer wears her Warlock tattoo on her sleeve.

The Hammer Of The Witch music is composed of diverse tones, anthem moments, tempos, and pitches, which give the music vitality and charm. As a result, the seven songs do not sound monotonous; instead, they convey heavy metal vibes from beginning to end.

The band is a one-person project, with Ntima as the sole member at the helm, while the guest/session members who contribute their skills elevate the rest of the music. This comprises this fruit of art devilmanship that provides especially noteworthy instrumental and vocal work. 

Overall, Natthammer’s music is a fruit of art that creates an unforgettable listening experience. So, if you are a fan of classic heavy metal and Warlock/Doro, then Natthammer and The Hammer Of The Witch are for you.

The Hammer of the Witch is a heavy, breathtaking, enjoyable release—a musical journey you will never forget.
The album comes to an end with the last song, Visionary. We want to give a shoutout to Hard Life PR for letting us review Natthammer and their Hammer of the Witch album. Now, we’re going to wrap it up by talking about the final three sins and concluding the review.
