Black Diamond Heavies
A punk-*ss blues duo from the South featuring John Wesley Myers a.k.a. JAMES LEG (vocals/keys), and VAN CAMPBELL (drums/vocals). "All To Hell - Their Baddest and Greasiest" INCLUDES 3 TRACKS RELEASED ON VINYL FOR THE FIRST TIME AND 2 PREVIOUSLY UNRELEASED LIVE TRACKS featuring founding member Mark "Porkchop" Holder (guitar/vocals). All the material on this release has been remastered. Their attack of drums and keyboards is a mean, fcked up, gospel punky hybrid and rocks with ragged, soulful passion. - ROCK SOUND What the Heavies really do best is rock'n'roll. And I mean real old fashioned, vintage, nail you to the wall rock and roll. - BLUES IN LONDON Think Exile on Main Street recorded in Howlin' Wolf's casket. Nothing smooth or clean here. Just eight-bar skronk in bad need of a tetanus shot. - THE PITCH Tom Waits growls. Joe Cocker growls. Myers gargles the thick blues drawl of a man who has never inhaled without a Marlboro Red in his gob, which is partly why Every Damn Time is so brilliant. - NME A whiskey-sweating, soul-damning, arms-in-the-air carnival. - NASHVILLE SCENE
