Heavy Equipment (CD)
Euclid's one and only album is among the very best of it's type, which is most certainly Heavy Rock at it's best. The musicians themselves were of an excellent caliber & very experienced, coming from a diverse New England Garage & Psych Rock background. Groups from which they haled prior included the noteworthy Psych tinged Garage act the Lazy Smoke as well as Garage rockers the Cobras. One of the coolest things about this album is the overall evidence of it's group members various background influence on it. In Euclid, you get the very best of it all. You have the raw & ferocious high energy Garage element mixed with a very clear and real Psychedelic conviction of the drug saturated times. These over shadowing characteristics combined with their new heavy/hard rock discipline & focus, resulted in one of the best early Heavy Rock albums ever recorded in the United States. The combined member's various instrumental contributions are equally matched by their amazingly supportive crystalline vocal harmonies. The background vocal quality was quite effectively offset by the lead vocals "take no prisoners" brutal male vocal styling. The production on this record is absolutely top notch and can't help but to give the music it's deep unstoppable heavy forward momentum. Very much living up to the group's namesake, the guitar, bass & drums on this record, in typical earth moving fashion, musically command the attention of the listener & level any and all resistance in their path. The album itself stands to this day as a perfect monument of that which musically represents the US transition from Hard/Heavy Psych to Hard/Heavy Rock. In short, the group Euclid were one of the true "unsung" cornerstones that really helped to "pave" the way for the up and coming FM centered US Hard Rock movement. KILLER!
