Willow wisp became fully developed in 1990. shocking the hollywood club scene with a blend of eccentric gothic death music and a delicately performed stage show. since then, willow wisp has appeared in over 300 different magazines (live wire, metal maniacs, hit parader), fanzines (low life-england, lollypop-france, slayer zine-norway), and television talk shows (the jenni jones show, fox 11 news) all over the world. we are one of the most well known and respected underground bands on the scene today. we blend gothic with black metal, orchastration with techno, and every other kind of music inbetween.
Willow wisp was created to explore the realms of experimentation and eventually establish itself as a legend in the annals of rock history. described by many as a "gothic" group, one quickly changes their perception once immersed in the diverse and rather innovative realms of the bands calculated dementia. but nothing compares to the theater like atmosphere which prevails throughout a willow wisp performance. a ritualistic stunt, taken part by air-rik (vocals, guitar) as he takes a sharp razor and cuts his chest to shreds (shaving cream included). other such psychotic antics include toe-knee (reverse drums, tortured screams, poetry, fire breathing), and his symbolic "trash can murder ritual" - where he rhythmically plays a top its gleaming surface only to bludgeon and beat it to death.
