Uriah Heep is a British rock band, officially formed in 1969 in England, when record producer Gerry Bron invited keyboardist Ken Hensley (previously a member of The Gods and Toe Fat) to join Spice, a band signed to his own Bronze Records label.
Sometimes jokingly referred to as “The Beach Boys of heavy metal” for their melodic songs, and trademark multi-part harmony backing vocals, although their music draws on diverse influences including psychedelia, gothic sound, progressive rock, hard rock, early heavy metal, jazz, and even country on occasion.
Uriah Heep remains active today with its lineup since 1986. Their next album, titled Wake the Sleeper, is due for release on June 2nd 2008 on Universal records in CD format and limited edition 12” vinyl with gatefold sleeve.

The best band ever! Loved the show at Helsinki last Saturday, Uriah Heep is one band you have to see live. @Deogracias - yeah, I loved Firefly when I first heard it. And of course "Wise man" is a giant hit, well at least in my family ;)

Deogracias wrote:
Have you guys tried the album "Firefly"? It's quite good, but overlooked by many. Not their best album, but it's certainly a piece of art.

I recommend owning any and all of the Byron era albums because they're mostly consistent and at times flawless (Demons & Wizards, Magician's Birthday). Also if you can track down the vinyls several of the earlier album arts are spectacular as well.

That's breathtaking. o.o Alright, but I only know "Lady in Black", the other stuff is pretty unknown. Maybe I should take some time to listen to that! :D

That's difficult to say -> almost impossible, ... but "Salisbury" is also one of my favourites... (the album as well as its title-track)
