    First off, who are the 13 people who don't like this? Saw these guys last nigth and it was one of the best shows I've ever been too! They destroyed the stage, and the energy of the whole venue was amazing. You could tell they were really enjoying themselves, that they were really feeding off the energy from the crowd. They closed with bury me in smoke and I got bruised as fuck in the pit but it was worth it!

    Oh hey now I get it. I've been watching this video for more than a year and I finally noticed the part where they actually trip the witches with blocks of stone to kill them. Interesting

    • @liiifer
      @liiifer Před 7 lety +7

      I remember when they released this as a single. The story goes that they were touring in some country like romania or transylvania I don't recall, but they were in this village and Pepper noticed all the houses had some sort of protrusion on the roof. The locals, based on superstition referred to them as "witchtrippers" It was some kind of thing akin to a good luck talisman or something of the like to keep witches away.

    • @j.cnnrtv

      "On the new song "Witchtripper":
      Pepper Keenan:
      "We were down in Spain, in this little village, and I noticed that every house had these stones on the corner of the roof. And everywhere I looked, there were images of witches in people's windows.
      Of course, Phil and I being like we are, we started envisioning what these stones were. We figured they were probably witchtrippers - you got witches on the roof, and they trip her up when she's coming down. We had to have the correct song to match the coolness of the word. When I had the riff, I knew it was one that would be 'Witchtripper'."
      This little village is Viveiro in Galicia-Spain, (Galicia Land of Witches) where the Resurrection Fest takes place, and where Dawn stayed for two weeks getting inspired.

I just found out today. Jumped around the house like a maniac, then called my best friend...she lost her shit. And we yelled on the phone for 5 fucking minutes. I'm so excited that I'm gonna finally see them, they're not in Europe all that much so I'm just like...dying over here.

This video confirms I was correct. If you live in the SE of the U.S....this song makes sense to you...if you don't, then spend about 5 years down here and it will make sense.
