Hell Preachers Inc. - "Supreme Psychedelic Underground" 1969

A big classic from the psychedelic era, the "Supreme Psychedelic Underground" exploitation album is said to have been recorded by Deep Purple, which band members John Lord, Ritchie Blackmore, and Ian Paice have all denied. It's very close to the "Shades of Deep Purple" album, it contains some great hammond and awesome guitar jams and plenty of wah pedal and distortion. The whole album is a sonic blast that will appeal to Deep Purple fans, collectors, and afficianados alike.
Deep Purple fanatics strongly maintain that this is indeed Purple, although the cover offers no band members, production notes of any kind. Those who differ with the Deep Purple argument seem to think it is anonymous German session musicians. You be the judge.

Here lies the thunder of yesterday....

Heavy 70's. The retirement home of underground Proto-Metal, Hard Rock, Heavy Psych, Rock 'n' Roll, Blues Rock, Stoner Rock, Fuzz Tone, Heavy Prog, Prog, Garage Punk, Proto-Punk, Krautrock, and all that was heavy, and LOUD from mid to late 60's through late 70's up to the N.W.O.B.H.M.

Sonic mayhem from a time when volume meant walls of Hiwatts and guitar tones were just as fuzzy as the people playing them. Scores of underground sounds from all over the globe, as well as some well known names.

Most are long gone, others carry on.

A lot of these elder knights of noise have resurrected themselves in recent years due to the ever increasing interest and resurgence of this particular scene of sound. Further proof that gone NEVER means forgotten.

This page is just for shits and kicks and spreadin' great tunes around. I am not a reviewer, nor do I consider myself a journalist of any type. If you're looking for detailed, in depth history, and what all the past members are up to you're in the wrong place. I AM however, a rabid vinyl junkie and "heavy" collector of many types and genres.

That all being said, I hope you get turned on to at least a few bands or find something new to your world you can appreciate.

Fuckin' A.
