Yeah Man, It’s Bloody Heavy!!

A collection of extremely obscure but equally amazing tracks from the true underground of early 70s British Heavy Rock. A time when Black Sabbath were kings of the scene! Compiled and curated by Lee Dorrian and collector friend Austin Matthews.

Only two of these tracks have been previously released (on very low-key CD releases), the rest are completely unknown.

Rise Above Relics pulled together the heaviest, nastiest sounding unreleased recordings by the most obscure UK bands they could track down, after seeing their names listed in the back-pages of 1970s music weeklies, old flyers, posters, fanzines, thanks lists, wherever. With often just a name to go on, they spent hundreds of hours (often fruitlessly) trying to track down likely candidates

Yeah Man, It’s Bloody Heavy is simply the coolest, most unique and uncompromising collection of heavy UK nuggets ever to be released.
