Tax The Heat - new album out now + track-by-track part 2 posted online!

Bristol's classic rockers with a modern roll, TAX THE HEAT, release their full length Nuclear Blast Entertainment debut, »Fed To The Lions« today! "We are so excited for the world to hear »Fed To The Lions«. It’s the culmination of three years of touring and writing," comments frontman Alex Veale. He continues, "In my opinion it captures everything I wanted it to, the energy, the songs and the performances. I've been involved in releases before and always felt the recordings haven't quite been right. With this though I wouldn’t change a thing about what we did or how we did it. We are immensely proud and hope you enjoy it." Drummer Jack Taylor adds, "It's great to have the album finally released, it's been a long time coming but we're over the moon that we can now share it with the world! Turn it on and crank up that volume!"

  • The album perfectly illustrates why there is so much excitement around this release, with fellow musicians and press praising the band's new offering:
  • "This is the most exciting band I've heard in years! Hail, hail, rock 'n' roll." - Richard Fortus (GUNS N' ROSES)
  • "These guys are easily the best new band I have heard in years!" - Scott Gorham (THIN LIZZY, BLACK STAR RIDERS)
  • "All killer, no filler: outstanding debut from the Bristolians." - CLASSIC ROCK MAGAZINE (UK), 9/10
  • "The boys from Bristol are the UK counterpart to RIVAL SONS. No bullshit rock 'n' roll." - Chris Goss (KYUSS and QUEENS OF THE STONE AGE (producer), MASTERS OF REALITY)
  • "The future of high energy, blues based rock 'n' roll is safe in the hands of TAX THE HEAT. Play this loud and play it a lot." - GET READY TO ROCK (UK)
  • "Fed To The Lions is an exceptional debut record...a fearless release, and one that Nuclear Blast should be very proud of having on their roster." - UBER ROCK (UK)
  • "TAX THE HEAT's influences very clearly lie in the British rock 'n' blues scene of the late sixties, as well as the stoner and alt-rock vibes of three decades later...The result is an album with a classic sensibility yet a modern edge, one which draws upon the heritage which its creators so obviously curate with affection yet oozes a vibrant relevance." - PLANET MOSH (UK)
  • "TAX THE HEAT are a great band, as tight as duck's arse, and much better looking. I hear the new record is great too." - Danny Bowes (THUNDER)
  • "So the music business has taken a bit of a tumble but there are talented hungry, young bands out there who can build a new foundation. The bold and brilliant Bristol outfit TAX THE HEAT is one of those bands that soars above the rest. Their song 'Fed To The Lions' is already a true classic rock track and they've only just begun!" - Joey Tempest (EUROPE)
