By 1987, heavy metal had firmly established its relationship with the occult. From Black Sabbath to Venom and beyond, the dark side was ripe for plundering. The emergence of the thrash, death and black metal movements was conjuring all manner of blasphemous and unsettling new music, and censorious bell-ends the world over were routinely getting their collective undergarments in a twist. It was, it has to be said, great fun.Among the less-celebrated contributors to metal’s malevolent evolution were German upstarts Warlock. Led by Doro Pesch, the melodic speed metal crew had steadily built a reputation in Europe, releasing three well-received albums and accruing a sizeable, dedicated following.
