Witchcraft Destroys Minds & Reaps Souls is the first album by the American rock band Coven. The album's overtly occult and satanic themes prompted removal from the market soon after its release in 1969. That summer coincided with public hysteria surrounding the Manson family and rampant media speculation about occult influences on the era's counterculture. The album's lyrical themes and visual design were influential on the occult rock and heavy metal genres.
