Manga Rock

Descripción

Product Description Zamza is a song-oriented band with plenty of catchy hooks. Their hard driving rock puts them right at home in the Alt-Rock genre. Review Zamza may be a new rock band, but the four musicians are industry veterans whose collaboration results in the exciting new release entitled 'Manga Rock'. This combination of vitality and experience infuses 'Manga Rock' with the right degree of edginess and maturity to produce rock music delicious enough to leave you wanting more. The opening track drives hard, with skillful use of keyboards to set off the grinding guitar and bass. Other songs are softer, but hold your attention with catchy hooks that stick in your mind and suddenly make a reappearance hours or days after listening. The title song closes the album with references to the fictional character Gregor Samsa in Franz Kafka's short story 'The Metamorphosis', and embarks on a trancelike course at times augmented by a catchy bubbling bass line. Following the 9 album tracks are additional remixes of 4 of the earlier songs. Vocalist, Zinc White, displays a wide range, reaching some incredibly high notes in some songs while dropping to a normal range elsewhere, giving the compositions added variety. If you prefer lyrics that touch on their meaning without hitting you over the head with it, you ought to appreciate this album. Production quality is top notch, with each band member crisply defined in punchy, but well-balanced sound. Overall, a very entertaining and memorable album. --Anton de Flon
