To paraphrase Brandon Stosuy's review of Witch's debut album, stoner/doom metal fans will likely find Witch-- which features Dinosaur Jr.'s J Mascis on drums-- fun, if hardly original. When these side endeavors become ongoing concerns, however, they lose some of their inherent charm-- especially if, like Witch, they're doing what lots of other groups have already done. And so might be harder and (in sound and in spirit) grungier, but it only goes to show that there's a world of difference between imitation and inspiration.
