Coven

American psychedelic rock band

Coven is an American rock band that was formed in the late 1960s, with a musical style that incorporates elements of rock, psychedelic rock, and occult-themed lyrics. The band is often recognized for their theatrical stage shows and the use of occult and Satanic imagery, which was pioneering at the time and influenced later acts in the heavy metal genre. Coven is perhaps best known for their debut album "Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reaps Souls," released in 1969, which included one of their most notable songs, "Black Sabbath." The band's use of dark and controversial themes was ahead of its time, contributing to their cult status.
