Rough Trade is a multinational label that was started by Geoff Travis in 1976 as a London record-shop. It quickly grew into an independent label and distributor, collaborating with notable labels such as 4AD, Factory Records, and One Little Indian. The label's catalogue numbering system for singles/EPs included prefixes like RT### and RTT###CD for different formats. Albums were numbered sequentially as ROUGH### with extensions for different formats.In the early 1990s, Rough Trade faced financial difficulties after expanding into the US market. The US branch was shut down and the German branch ended up in the Zomba Music Group. One Little Indian provided financing and took over the label in the UK, retaining ownership of key releases like A.R. Kane albums. Geoff Travis eventually regained control of Rough Trade around 1999–2000 and re-launched it alongside Tugboat Records.

The album "A Heavy Night With..." by Relaxed Muscle was released by Rough Trade. This unique and eclectic album showcases the experimental and boundary-pushing sound of the band, offering a thrilling musical experience for listeners.

Featuring 12 tracks, "A Heavy Night With..." takes you on a sonic journey through various genres, blending elements of electronic music, punk rock, and alternative pop. Each song is crafted with meticulous attention to detail, creating a dynamic and immersive listening experience.

Relaxed Muscle's distinctive sound is characterized by its raw energy and infectious hooks. The band's frontman, Jarvis Cocker (known for his work with Pulp), delivers powerful vocals that perfectly complement the edgy instrumentals. The lyrics explore themes of desire, rebellion, and self-expression, adding depth and meaning to the album.

From the opening track "Billy Jack" to the closing notes of "Rod Of Iron," each song on "A Heavy Night With..." captivates with its unique blend of catchy melodies and gritty production. Standout tracks include the pulsating "The Heavy," the anthemic "Sexualized," and the hauntingly beautiful "Year Of The Dog."

This album is a must-have for fans of alternative music who appreciate bold experimentation and genre-bending sounds. Whether you're a long-time fan of Jarvis Cocker or new to Relaxed Muscle's music, "A Heavy Night With..." is sure to leave a lasting impression.
