This is the album that solidified Uriah Heep's reputation as a master of gothic-inflected heavy metal. From short, sharp rock songs to lengthy, musically dense epics, Demons and Wizards finds Uriah Heep covering all the bases with style and power. The album's approach is set with its lead-off track, "The Wizard": it starts as a simple acoustic tune but soon builds into a stately rocker that surges forth on a Wall of Sound built from thick guitar riffs, churchy organ, and operatic vocal harmonies.

Outsider is the 24th studio album by Uriah Heep. It was released in Europe in June 2014 by Frontiers Records. It was produced by Mike Paxman and it is the first album with new bassist Dave Rimmer. Cover art is created by Igor Morski.

Запись концерта не передает многих нюансов группы. «Русская Симфония», например, исполнялась в Вятке настолько впервые, что никто не мог предсказать, какие аккорды грядут в следующую секунду - однако телепатический контакт был явно налицо; а во время «Критика» на сцену выползал наш звукооператор и ползком исполнял народные индейские пляски (типа Танца Маленьких Лебедей наоборот). Рюши в Вятке не было; вероятно он устал в полном обмундировании прыгать ласточкой в ванны, полные роз, и поэтому уехал в Германию на отдых - исполнять старинную музыку аутентичным образом. Срочно вызванный ему на смену старый знакомый С.Рыженко в Вятку приехал, но не смог преодолеть сильный психический стресс, поэтому концерт сыгран квартетом.
