In This Moment guitarist Chris Howorth joins Scott Penfold a week after Taste Of Chaos, with Witch, the band's ninth album and first on Better Noise, out now. The first version of the record: twelve songs with Kane Churko that the band decided had pushed too far, so they reworked some, set others aside and wrote three new songs with Drew Fulk. Whether the set-aside songs ever come out, and who in the band says out loud that a song isn't working.

Also: the push-pull with Maria Brink over how heavy a record should open, three covers on one album (The Police, Pink Floyd with Kat Von D, Nine Inch Nails), the thirteen months between "Heretic" and the album, Beautiful Tragedy turning 20 in March, and the 2005 audition Howorth turned down before Maria talked him back into the band.
