Repost: Zior – Every Inch a Man (1972)

Segundo álbum dessa banda britânica, lançado pela Intercord em 1972, "Every Inch a Man" é marcado por riffs marcantes, guitarras distorcidas e um vocal "tenebroso". Logo na intro "Entrace of the devil" já da pra sentir que os caras não estavam pra brincadeira, repleta de risadas maníacas e berros aterrorizantes. A banda faz um trabalho decente, fazendo um hard pesado, acrescentando elementos de blues, psicodélico e folk, preenchendo assim as 13 faixas desse disco.

"ZIOR switched to Intercord for the release of another obscure 1972's masterpiece 'Every Inch A Man' on the Global imprint. Released only in Germany this album featured an intro of pseudo-occult ramblings and the track 'Entrance Of The Devil' replete with maniacal laughter and terrified screams.The members of ZIOR released a black magic flavoured Hard Rock album under pseudonyms as MONUMENT on the Beacon Label in 1971.
Well Known for their Interest in Black Magic and the Occult, their Wild Live Performances Helped them Grow a Strong Fan Base, Especially in Germany Where their Second Album, "Every Inch a Man", was Originally Released in 1972."

Disco de estréia da banda Zior, a arte do álbum foi toda feita pelo artista Keef (o mesmo do Black Sabbath I e do poster do Master of Reality). Aqui temos um Hard Rock bem Psicodélico, esse disco contem 5 fixas bônus sendo todas elas faixas do seu segundo disco "Every Inch a Man" 

"Reissue of early 70s UK heavy rock band's debut album from 1971 with 5 bonus tracks from their 1973 follow up, Every Inch A Man. Right away you notice the spooky artwork, which was created by the same artist who did the first Black Sabbath album."
