Known for such classic albums as ‘Look At Yourself,’ ‘Demons And Wizards’ and ‘The Magician’s Birthday,’ hard rock legends Uriah Heep are back with a brand new album.

Outsider’ is the band’s 24th studio album, and first new album in three years. With a good 44 years and counting for band leader and guitarist Mick Box, it’s all about the road ahead. “We are very proud of our history” he said in a press release for the album. “But it is equally important to keep producing new material. This new album is very much a rock album in true ‘Heep’ style. It shows that we still have the same passion and energy for our music that we have always had.”

The Heep has been through many changes, most recently when longtime bassist Trevor Boulder passed away last year. New bassist Dave Rimmer has now officially joined the lineup. “We lost a world class bass player, singer, songwriter and friend, recalled Box, “While Trevor was ill, he wanted us to continue working, so we used a bass player called Dave Rimmer, who Trevor approved of. It was only natural that Dave carried on with the band.” In addition to Box, the only original member, the band also includes drummer Russell Gilbrook, and longtime members Phil Lanzon on keyboards and singer Bernie Shaw.

‘Outsider’ is set for release in June on the Frontiers label.​

Can't wait for their new album. Already have it on order.
My favourite band, I have 126 albums by them - all the studio albums, most of the live albums (just missing a few from the Official Bootleg series), a few dvd's and a heep of bootlegs

Haven't heard it yet, although it was released here on Friday. I'll probably pick up a copy on Tuesday (tomorrow is a public holiday here). So far all the reviews are very positive. As I said earlier in this thread, I hope "Outsider" is right up there with "Wake the Sleeper".

I'm picking up a CD copy tomorrow after work, hoping to get a vinyl copy as well.
