This Heat emerged in early 1976, known as the most left-field and most hard-edged band in the country, their concerts attracted experimental, punk and new wave audiences alike. Working for years in their own, now legendary, studio in Brixton (Cold Storage) their material evolved, grew and became increasingly intense. Their first LP, with its distinctive blue and yellow sleeve, appeared on David Cunningham's Piano label in 1979 and acquired immediate iconic status, and over time it has also proved itself prescient; there are musical innovations here that would take another 15 years to reappear.

This Heat was a landmark release - music without precedent; the musicians uncompromising; the recordings hammeringly intense and the sound deep, radical, and rich. and it hasn't aged.
