about

Witchcraft Rebellion first appeared in 2001. It was produced by Phil Elverum at Dub Narcotic Studio in Olympia, Washington.
All sounds by Arrington de Dionyso, Aaron Hartman and Phil Elverum.
All lyrics by Arrington de Dionyso.
The "concept" initially was to tell the story of the Garden of Eden in the Book of Genesis from the serpent's point of view. It's kind of a lot more than that, of course.

Here is a review written by Piero Scaruffi
"Witchcraft Rebellion (K, 2001) continues DeDionyso's adventurous journey through the genres. The band's skills at composing musical structures out of pure chaos have greatly improved and some of the songs actually sound like... songs. One is mesmerized to hear how the ebullient, feverish cacophony of Mystery Language actually translates into a sort of uplifting square dance, and how the the samples, the dissonances and the sheer nonsense of The Book Of Life And Crime turn into a beautifully crafted instrumental. Most of the credit actually goes to the fantastic rhythm section of Phil Elverun (drums) and Aaron Hartman (bass).
The album even boasts relatively sane compositions such as Vampire Sushi, a psychotic voodoobilly replete with swamp beat and surf guitar, and King Of Nothing, a rockabilly number that would make Elvis Presley commit suicide. On the other hand, there is little the band can do to control the absolute folly of Two Crows and Treasure Map.
In order to leave no stone unturned and to top the demented standard of the album, DeDionyso also delights listeners with his trademark saxophone solos, notably in Cuneform, Mercury Snake, the two-minute sonata of Fermentatic and the grotesque jam of Witchcraft Rebellion. Enough to make generations of jazz players turn in their graves. Hats off to a real genius."

Old Time Relijun is an unearthly combo from Olympia, Washington. We see them as mythical! Resistance, magic and hope are catalysts for a deeper tunneling under. Their songs are sexy, untethered, and sing-along at the edge of the volcano fun.
