1782-self titled is the debut album by the Sardinian stoner doom band 1782. It was released in May 2019 by Heavy Psych Sounds Records. The album is named after the year of the last witch trial and execution in Switzerland, Anna Goldi. The band was formed in honor of all “witches” who have been murdered by bigotry throughout time.
The album is a continuous head-banging journey of seven songs, with a short introductory track. The first third of the album can best be described as solid stoner fuzz, with tracks like "The Witching Hour" and "The Devil's Dance". The second third of the album is more occult-themed, with tracks like "She Was a Witch" and "1782". The album ends with a cover of Pink Floyd's "Celestial Voices", which features guest musicians.
