Yes folks, you read the title correctly. Witchfinder General are back together again and are... well I'll let you read Phil's statement to the press.

------------------------------------------------------

Derm, Rod and Phil are back together and it's official. They start recording 2 tracks next weekend with a view to doing the third album. The band are currently looking for a vocalist to replace Zeeb.

We have been asked so many questions about what has happened to Zeeb Parkes?
The name Zeeb Parkes was invented purely for the band. When the band split, Zeeb Parkes ceased to be. The character behind Zeeb Parkes who wishes to keep his identity anonymous has moved on to other things.

Phil - "It is no secret that the friendship between Zeeb and myself has finished. Looking back Zeeb was an inspiration to us all and I have some great and happy memories of him, so many that I could write a bestseller about it! But Zeeb is into other things now and I wish him all the best."

"We are back together hopefully to record the 'elusive' third album. There may even be a track including the first rhythm section of Steve and Toss, if they can be forced out of retirement ha! ha! This is a small thanks to everyone who has stood by the band. The guys have no plans to ever play live again but at least new material is on its way."

So there you have it folks. All our pestering and support has finally paid off. The lads are reforming and RECORDING!!! I can't even tell you how excited I am about this.

Cheers and thanks to everyone who has visited this site and shown their support for Witchfinder General and each other. This is all your doing. Thank you all very very much.

Huzzar!!!!! Awesome news!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

This will kick some serious arse! \m/

Great news, but too bad without Zeeb!

Now where did put my audition tape?!?

Yeh, sad though it may be no Zeeb, but no-one is indispensable nowadays ... and the show must go on as they say!!

The guys will be looking for tapes soon so get it in Mazz!!!

cannot wait

Can't believe we get to hear more Riffs! Truly unbelievable!

Thanks Phil and gang! I can't wait!

Thanks to you too Liam!

Great news.Loved the first album so much i bought the pic disc and the red vinyl lp.But surely guys Bloodstock 2007 is a must? Theres too many of us out here dying for the WG live experience

fantastic news

shocked at that news - always loved the group never got to see em live was too young i guess

hope it all goes well though

big shame about Zeeb - would we know the geez if we knew his real name?

It's probably actually something really nerdy, like Nasal T. Lardbottom III

Great news, can't wait!

Rock On!
