Blastin\u2019 underground hard-rock from Canada, 1972, ultra-raw guitars and vocals. File next to Elias Hulk. First reissued by Guerssen Records in 2026, here\u2019s a new repress with newly sourced \/ remastered sound. Ellison were a Montr\u00e9al-based hard-rock\/ heavy-blues band emerging from Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s late \u201960s psychedelic scene. With just one album to their name, they left behind a powerful legacy and a rapidly growing cult following. The band\u2019s origins trace back to 1967, when bassist Richard Arcand and vocalist Vincent Marandola played together in Johnny Peace. In 1969, guitarist Christian Vaeillant and drummer Robert Cager joined forces with them, forming Ellison. Closely tied to l\u2019Association des Orchestres\u2014a collective led by Jean-Claude Brosseau dedicated to Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s underground movement\u2014Ellison quickly became part of a rising wave of hard-rock and psychedelic blues acts redefining the local scene. By 1971, Ellison were building momentum through relentless live performances across college campuses and schools, earning a strong following. In 1972, the band entered the studio with the Supreme label to record their first and only album. Released that same year, the record captured the raw intensity and spirit of their live shows. On March 31, 1973, Ellison performed what would become their last known show in Montr\u00e9al. Shortly after, they disappeared without a trace from the live circuit, leaving behind a single album and a lasting reputation within Qu\u00e9bec\u2019s underground. *Original artwork in hard cardboard sleeve. *Newly sourced \/ remastered sound. *Insert with liner notes and photos. \u201cThey come across as cavemen with big amps\u2026one of the best hard-rock LPs from anywhere in the world\u201d.
