This has nothing to do with Wicca March 31, 2003 14 out of 22 found this review helpful
I don't understand how Wicca can even be in the title, this CD has nothing to do with Wicca.
BRAZILIAN EVIL BRUTALITY September 12, 2001 6 out of 10 found this review helpful
This is an intelligent reissue by OSMOSE as both LP's became rarities on their original forms... So you are supposed to get this cd principally if you are a latecomer to black/death metal or if you are an afficcionate of brazilian metal. "Wicca" was originally released in 1991 (debut LP) and it is Mystifier's best work, simply terrifying with sinister vocals and great compositions! The intro/outro "OUR GLOAT" is unforgettable and the brutality of the coming tracks is simply unbelievable. Some of the precious black jewels presented are "OSCULUM OBSCENUM", "AN ELIZABETHAN DEVIL WORSHIPPER'S PRAYER BOOK" and "TORMENTUM ETERNUM". Man, this is one of the brazilian discs ever recorded on the black/death metal genre, although the original production was poor. It is interesting to note these guys come from the state of Bahia, northeast of Brazil (from where just a few good bands in this style raised). They will remember you of BLASPHEMY at the first view... Some tracks present slow-tempo passages that create an original and terrific atmosphere. The "Goetia" part of this cd (originalproduction = 1993), that was their second disc, is better produced and shows a faster style, but featuring keyboards passage that sound very well put and original - this Lp was originally produced in 1993. The re-recording of "An Elizabethan Devil..." is the best track at this work. Not as shocking as Wicca, but equally good. The cover featured at the reissue is Goetia's original. Despite the (satanic) lyrics with english errors and the brazilian accent, this is an essential classic from Brazil, don't loose it!!!
Wicca ??? February 12, 2005 6 out of 12 found this review helpful
Maybe "Frantic Goth" or "Wannabe Satanists" would be a better name. I agree with the other reviewer -- this album has pretty much nothing to do with Wicca. Could be the band just doesn't understand Wicca, and glommed onto it, mistakenly thinking it had something to do with evil or "Satan"? The band just needs a dictionary and a new name.
Misleading Title vs. Content October 3, 2005 5 out of 9 found this review helpful
This collection is completely mistitled for its content. Don't buy if you are looking for something Wiccan for your collection.
To all mindless reviewers and confused pagans... December 30, 2006 2 out of 3 found this review helpful
I was originally going to write an extensive review of the music, but after seeing the ineptitude that results from obvious Amazon searches, I lost all interest. Plus, those who would enjoy the band already know them.
First of all, to the three complaining reviewers and anyone else who stumbles onto this page and gets excited over the use of the word, actually, you are the ones in the wrong--get a clue about etymology. "Wicca" in Old English referred to a sorceror/necromancer/male witch, far before the word was usurped by any religious groups or society. Early use of the term can be found in old texts of the Laws of Alfred/Aelfred. So please get back to watching "The Craft" again (as if you need anyone to press you to do so) and leave serious occult discussion to those without lobotomies.
I will say that my (already low) opinions of pagan/nature-polytheism are totally justified if "followers" use the search engine of a commercial shopping site to fulfill their theological needs.
Anyway, just a bit about the actual Mystifier double CD set. While it is their best material, Osmose unfortunately only repackaged it (as a digicase, ugh), and there are no bonuses, hence I remove a star. This is worth mentioning because both albums have been reissued as seperate CDs with bonus material of varying origins, both old and new. So the only appeal of this 2CD version is from the relative ease of obtaining it compared to other versions, or if extra material from the band is of no interest to you.
