The band, who are currently unsigned, released their latest CD, "Recovered", independently last spring. The effort featured covers of songs from QUEEN, THIN LIZZY, TYGERS OF PAN TANG and SWEET SAVAGE, as well as an original track, "In Memory of…" (written and dedicated to former band member Randy Laird and White's brother Jeffrey).

A two-minute rough sample of a brand new HEATHEN track with "scratch" vocals has been posted online at this location (.WMA file, 2.5 MB).
