Album Notes & Community Reviews

'Heroin Man' is the second album by American noise rock band Cherubs, released in 1994. The album is a dense and sprawling work, characterized by its loud, distorted, and compressed sound where bass and guitar often merge into a wall of noise. Its title, cover art, and lyrical themes were heavily influenced by the death of a close friend of the band, contributing to its raw and misanthropic energy.
