Biography
Official Website: http://zvoovband.com
You could call Zvoov math rock, but that would be missing the point. Yes, the instrumental power trio rocks angular riffs and impossible rhythms, but this is not some dispassionate exercise in odd-meter wankery. This is music with feeling, owing as much to Radiohead and Om as to Hella and Don Caballero. Zvoov's sound veers effortlessly from glimmering, off-kilter melodicism to full-blown sludgy mayhem. The weird time signatures are certainly there, but often woven slyly into a song to create a sense of unease and disquiet within an otherwise accessible piece.
Beginning with the release of debut CD Everbrown in 2011, Zvoov began bringing its original take on instrumental rock to the world. Live, Zvoov has quickly become a regular in the New York scene, wowing audiences with its energetic shows and daring musicianship.
Zvoov formed in 2009 in Brooklyn, NY. They broke up following their cross-country tour in 2012.
Arthur now plays bass in Flaming Tusk.
