A super rare, worldwide sought-after heavyweight UK psychedelic rock album by the short-lived young power trio The Human Beast from Edinburgh, Scotland, released by Decca in November 1970 in England and Germany only. The band, which at times played as the opening act for Pink Floyd and Fleetwood Mac, secured a contract with the major label on the recommendation of their Scottish friend David McNiven (Bread, Love and Dreams). Recorded in just twelve hours, with support from McNiven and produced by Ray Horricks, the LP presents an unconventional and progressive style of heavy psychedelic rock featuring truly spacey guitar work that reveals Eastern influences, alongside a powerful bass and frenetic drums.

It is said, however, that the band were not satisfied with the sound of the recordings, as the producer had apparently smoothed them out too much. They would have liked to have sounded more aggressive, louder and more uncompromising, just like at their live gigs. Adding to their dissatisfaction was a lack of support – such as marketing and distribution – from the record company, as well as a lack of public interest, so that the band soon disbanded in disappointment. Today, their sole album is regarded as one of the most idiosyncratic and unsettling works in the entire history of rock music.
