The two decided to form Ozz as a vehicle that would crystallise their desire to harness the rampant energy of Led Zeppelin and Aerosmith. Issued in 1980 on the Epic label and produced by British whiz-kid Andy Johns (Led Zeppelin, Free, Hughes Thrall) the album is a blistering collection of red-hot hard rock leaning heavily on the Plant/Page and Tyler/Perry call and response axis.

They were also defining their image, as the ‘Sinful’ the album sleeve showcased the band with perfectly coiffed hair and in stunning all white superhero style outfits. It was an angelic sight to behold. Issued in 1978, recorded in Los Angeles and produced once again by Eddie Leonetti (Legs Diamond, Moxy, Rex) the record packs an impressive sonic punch, easily outpacing their previous works and positioning the band as potential superstars. In a bizarre move, the record was originally titled ‘Bad Publicity’ and had a suitably debauched album sleeve that was in complete contrast to their previous image.

As one of the longest running and most revered names on the French metal and hard rock scene, VULCAIN has always been and will always be a household name. Since their inception in the early ‘80s, VULCAIN have been quite rightly dubbed as the “French Motörhead”, but their music encompasses many more influences. After 35 years of rock n’ roll they reissue their first 8 studio albums, each in a separate cardboard sleeve. Housed in a clamshell box for a nice price: ‘Rock’n roll secours’, ‘Desperados’, ‘Big Brothers’, ‘Transition’, ‘Big Bang’, ‘Vulcain’, ‘Stoppe la machine’, ‘V8’.
