Best known for their rare and highly sought-after 1970 single, the band vanished almost as quickly as they appeared, leaving behind a small but intriguing legacy. Compiled in collaboration with the surviving members, this release finally sheds light on the group's story, pairing previously unreleased recordings with rare photographs and extensive liner notes that document their brief but fascinating existence.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp data-start=\"583\" data-end=\"1258\"\u003eMusically, \u003cstrong data-start=\"594\" data-end=\"603\"\u003ePunch\u003c\/strong\u003e occupied the space between late-1960s hard rock, heavy blues, and the emerging sounds that would later become heavy metal. Tracks such as \"Deathhead\", \"Devil's Candy\", and \"Nazarene\" reveal a band unafraid of dark themes, crushing riffs, and psychedelic undertones, while \"Mean Town Blues\" and \"Times Ago\" showcase their roots in blues-based rock. The inclusion of a newly remastered version of \"Deathhead\" gives fresh power to one of the band's defining songs. Both a historical document and a compelling listen in its own right, 'Punch' captures a lost moment when hard rock was beginning its transformation into something heavier and more adventurous.\u003c\/p\u003e","brand":"Ancient Grease Records","offers":[{"title":"12\" LP - Black","offer_id":53237600452936,"sku":"AGR027LP","price":38.0,"currency_code":"EUR","in_stock":true}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0261\/5771\/1414\/files\/punch-punch.jpg?v=1780680105","url":"https:\/\/mondonegro.com\/products\/punch-punch-lp","provider":"Mondo Negro","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
