WITCHTRAP was formed in Medellín in early 90's by the brothers WITCHHAMMER (Drums) & RIPPER (guitars and Vocals). Both were former members of a death metal band, called DARK MILLENNIUM. Their decision of leaving what they were doing at that moment, and change their musical direction came because of their music influences; 80's heavy and thrash metal bands marked their way. The band continued with just guitars, vocals and drums and without recordings until 1997. In this year, their first demo "The First Necromancy" was released, recorded with rehearsal sound and without bass session. The next year, another demo “Turn In Your Graves” was recorded in the same circumstances, but this one was never released because of economical problems.
Few time after releasing the demo “The First Necromancy”, a compilation of local bands “To Meet The Storm” featured the band song “Metal Mania”, which was the most outstanding one, even it had rehearsal sound. In the year 2000, WITCHTRAP was contacted by the label "Malignant Prod." from Cali – Colombia. With them, the "Witching Metal" Mlp was released in vinyl version, on one limited edition of 500 copies. At this time, a new member had entered the band, and so "DARKMOON" recorded the bass sessions. In 2001, another label, "Hell Attacks Prod." also from Cali, singed up with WITCHTRAP to release the "Sorceress Bitch" album on CD version, the next year. In late 2002 Darkmoon was fired of the band, and few time after a new bass player, Edison "Enforcer" got to the band, who fixed very well in the band by his musical level and influences.
In 2004, a South American compilation called "Ataque demoniáco Vol. 1." under the label “Dark Desires Prod.” featured the track "Desecration Of Evil" appearing in the "Turn In Your Graves" demo (above mentioned). In the same year, the French label “Ordealis Records” licensed the “Sorceress Bitch” album from “Hell Attacks Prod”, releasing it on vinyl version. In 2005, the band members found their own label, called “Dirty Sound Records”, with which they hope to manage their own releases, exploit their talent and avoid misunderstandings with other labels, in order to obtain the desired quality of all what is related to the band productions. First of all, “Dirty Sound Records” have bought the copyrights of the WITCHTRAP “Witching Metal” Mlp from its original co-owners “Malignant Prod” and “NNYDA”; this way “Witching Metal” has been re-released on CD version, featuring an excellent layout and sound quality. In addition, the North American label “Utterly Somber Creations” licensed the “Sorceress Bitch” album from “Hell Attacks Prod”, releasing it on Picture Disc and including the storming and outstanding
bonus track “Metal Mania” (courtesy of Dirty Sound Records), now with professional sound.
