Headz is a compilation released by the record label Mo'Wax. It was released as a 3 LP and as a 2-CD set with artwork by 3D from Massive Attack. It was one of the first albums to popularise the term trip hop even though it described itself as "Abstract Hip Hop". It featured early tracks by artists such as DJ Shadow and U.N.K.L.E. and even featured a track by Autechre, even though they were better known as an IDM act at the time.
It was followed a couple of years later by Headz 2A and Headz 2B which were two double CD compilations released at the same time.
hear the haunting theronade
like a chant through a timeless abyss
or the cries from the wolves from the
long lost woods
moon-less nights caress her
in shades of a nocturnal beauty
she dances on cemetary ground
be-witched by the wistful tunes of thy dark
enslaving eyes of a whistful darkness
calls me as a silent prayer
she is the one of nocturnal beauty
force me to become her slave
take - me on your journey
she was a woman in black lace
dancing like a raven around the mountain side
and the music of her wistful songs
or laughter, or cries
and out of the skies above me
a creature - a face turned down unto me
closer and closer - then so near
and when she again raised
she caressed me and lead us into a lustful dance
in circles bigger and bigger
higher up - into the moonless skies
