CD Reviews

Forgotten Landmark
L. Peyronnin | Phoenix, AZ United States | 05/25/2006
(5 out of 5 stars)

"This was the second album, following up the epon titled LP which was fairly predicatble mid-range heavy metal (not the deep-range style of Zeppelin or Sabbath).

Possibly searching around for a musical identity in this early stage of their recording careers, Heep put aside the the Anglo-Butterfly costuming they had been wearing on the first record, and put on the tux of Prog. The sound quality they got is murky, like Days of Future Passed (not good for a record made in 1970, when the `67 technology was already very dated) but the music is impressive and very enjoyable. The orchestral title piece, of an Art-Rock nature, is beautiful, and the forays into Folk-Rock and Jazz-Rock of the other tracks that once made up the A-Side of this album.

This was the only time, that I'm aware of, that Uriah Heep ventured outside the Heavy Metal genre. On their very next record, "Look at Yourself", Heep took a nose dive deep right back into sheet-kickin' rock."
