IN JEWELCASE

THE HUMAN BEAST / Volume One.
180 stunning and sole album from British heavy psychedelic/progressive rock band formerly known as Skin Originally released in 1970, the album is littered with blazing acid guitar solos and strange, trippy moments.

At times sounding like May Blitz meets Jefferson Airplane, this is a great reissue. Features a great heavy version of the Incredible String Band's "Maybe Someday".

Shame there was no Volume Two!

The music of this young Edinburgh trio was described in 1969 as 'electro flagellation', a phrase that aptly describes their vicious, Eastern inflected guitar lines, pounding bass and frenetic percussion. Taped in a single twelve hour stint in London that December, their sole album stands as one of the most distinctive and unsettling pieces of rock music ever recorded. Issued here with their full participation, their story - an enigma for decades - is finally told for the first time in an accompanying 16 page booklet, packed with previously unseen photographs, making it an essential purchase for all fans of heavy psychedelic rock and roll.

"Rare, sought after, and absolutely excellent heavy UK psychedelic album from 1970 - alternately hypnotic and hard driving, with intense guitar workouts in a classic psych mould" - www.rockadrome.com

"They set fire to your soul, then turn your mind inside out so the wind can cool your brain" - original press release
