Leatherwitch - First Spell (Black & blue marble) LP

LEATHERWITCH is a new Heavy Metal band formed by vocalist and multi- instrumentalist Marta Gabriel.
She disbanded her band CRYSTAL VIPER in the fall of 2025. The band toured in more than 20 countries, conquered the stages of major festivals such as Wacken Open Air, Hellfest or Keep It True, and left a legacy of 9 studio albums. CRYSTAL VIPER’s farewell live album entitled “The Live Quest”, came out in June 2025 on Listenable records.
Marta Gabriel comments : « The end of CRYSTAL VIPER didn’t mean the end of my musical journey, rather something totally opposite, it literally was “The New Beginning”. I’m a super creative person, I write music in different styles all the time. I’m a big, big fan of the very traditional and classic Hard Rock and Heavy Metal, this is what inspires me all the time. (…) And whenever a path ends, there’s a new path or even a few paths to follow. One of those new paths is called LEATHERWITCH, and it took me to the very basic and pure Heavy Metal. I wouldn’t call it “old school”, as I didn’t try to play or achieve the retro vibe over here – but it is indeed very classic sounding, raw, and full of the original Heavy Metal energy.
