Description

Following their remarkable global rediscovery and subsequent critical acclaim around 2023’s reunion album Zango, WITCH (We Intend To Cause Havoc) return with an even more ambitious creative statement, SOGOLO.

Its name derived from the word in Zambian dialect for “future,” the album is a sonic victory lap for a band who once seemed lost to history. SOGOLO takes strains of the garage-infused psych, funk, and Zamrock that the band quite literally helped invent back in their 70s heyday and reflects the experimental spirit of the moment, driven as always by the magnetic energy of frontman Emmanuel ‘Jagari’ Chanda.

A standout track, the single Queenless King is funky and urgent, driven by the magnetic energy of Jagari. The song explores the perils of marrying badly. The demo was brought to the band by the singer, with the verse bass-line written by producer Jacco Gardner. Synth overdubs were added by other original member Patrick Mwondela.
