DESCRIPTION
The Brand new studio album from the perennially popular heavy rock band • Leaf Hound’s first studio album in over 15 years • Includes a new recording of ‘Freelance Fiend’ • Line-up features founder member Peter French, Luke Rayner (guitar), Dominic French (drums) and Peter Herbert (bass) • Also available on Limited Edition blood red vinyl Often called The Pioneers of Heavy Metal, Leaf Hound became one of the most influential bands of the international Hard Rock/Stoner Rock music scene with their 1971 debut album Growers Of Mushroom, which today remains a highly sought after collector’s item. Due to business issues with their label and agents, the band broke up shortly after a successful tour of Germany the same year the album was released. In 2004 singer Peter French revived the band with a new line-up and in 2007 Leaf Hound released the critically acclaimed album Unleashed followed by Live In Japan, recorded during the band’s 2012 Japan tour. Now, Leaf Hound are back with a vengeance on this no-holds barred 13-track album. Hot’n’heavy riffs overlaid with Peter French’s powerful vocals prove none of their energy has been lost – if anything, Once Bitten shows it has only grown thanks to the dynamism of newcomers Dominic French and Peter Herbert. Bittersweet ballads are intertwined with pedal-to-the-metal, drivin’ rock, while ‘Thought Police’ and ‘Watching Life’s Wheels’ speak to the turbulent times in which we live. A new version of ‘Freelance Fiend’ is included on the CD and remains a stone classic. More than 50 years since their recording debut, Leaf Hound continue to draw a crowd and wow audiences with their high octane performances – Once Bitten will undoubtedly win them plaudits and new fans.
