Uriah Heep I saw in April 2014 once again live, as part of the Rock meets Classic tour. There have, of course, presents four of their classics, with the epic climax July Morning. Your orchestral cameo was fantastic, even if the white skirt Shirts by Mick Box and Bernie Shaw stressed fantastic over the tight midsection. What I did not at the time suspected: That the rock heroes had recently emerged from a fountain of youth. Because at this time was the new album Outsider certainly already all ready in the drawer. In retrospect, a great pity that they have not already it performs a track. For what should I write this album blows me away. So fresh hardware and heavy rock, which also comes along so very melodic, I have not heard from Uriah Heep for a long time. Yes, this British spit with the eleven songs very many young bands like that of. In the rock soup It has become an extremely coherent rock album and much reminds me of the recent Deep Purple plant Now what?!. Here as there grandiose Hammond organs (Speed of Sound), driving drums (The Law), above ground rapid guitars (Outsider) and Bernie Shaw, who, at least with studio technology, tremendously dynamic singing (Rock the Foundation). Sometimes I cant keep my feet on the ground, he sings in the groovy opener Speed of Sound and the words sound sustainable prophetically: Still Holding's damn hard with this album. Whoever heard on June 5, the day before release of Outsider, Iron Maiden at Rock am Ring (and seen) has, has also delighted at the intro Doctor Doctor by UFO and now incorporated into the new Uriah Heep CD, which has convinced be: all these old rock heroes from good old England are not far from the scrap heap, and Heep has not twice, even though the band has been founded in 1969. Small reminiscence on the edge: Take a look at yourself, Shaw roars at the beginning of looking at you. Look at yourself? There was something in 1971, their third studio album. So you hit verbally perfect bridge from the past to the modern day. And with all Outsider music.
