“What was a frozen plan that lasted at least two years, comes out now finally! Aborted by many reasons and put to rest through a long hiatus, it’s now time to present the much deserved Buffalo tribute with 12 great international Heavy Rock/Doom acts from the U.S. to Portugal and Spain, with Germany, UK and Italy in between. These are mostly unreleased songs presented on CD, to celebrate the greatness (and heaviness) of Australia’s premier Doom Rock & Rollers! Approved by Mr. Dave Tice himself (who left some nice comments in a few versions he’d heard), with 16 page booklet and sleeve art done by Rod Wolf from Midnight Priest, this is a release not to be missed for all who give a damn to 70’s Heavy Rock! Clearly Blood & Iron is doing it. Many didn’t believed and some also forgot, but good news on the horizon: The job is done!”

This record has been delayed for several years! It was recently scheduled for 01 Jun 2011, but upon contacting the label, I was told it will be not be out before 25 Jul 2011. In 2013 it was finally cancelled.
