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
