  Black Diamond Heavies - Fever in My Blood
Download   |  

Black Diamond Heavies hail from the south. Their debut record, Every Damn Time (Alive Records), is urgent, raw, unaltered soul born in junkyards and byways and revival tents. More ass-shaking soul due out in '08.

"At full steam, 'Every Damn Time' could soundtrack a Wild West train heist. When notched down, it is darker, moodier and even better. A fabulous debut."
– NME 2007

"Gospel-blues-punk preacher-isers John Wesley Myers and Van Campbell baptise you in beatific raptures of Hammond and drums, literally stripping the sound down to its scantily-clad soul."
– Sleazegrinder 2007

"Somewhere between Robert Johnson, Jon Spencer Blues Explosion and Suicide with a hint of twisted Southern hellfire preacher for good measure."
– Terrorizer 2007
