After The Air Raid

Product Description Zevious are a unique jazz band for the modern era. This instrumental guitar trio are equally influenced by the sound of early John McLaughlin/Tony Williams Lifetime, Meshuggah, the 'downtown punk-jazz- harmolodic' school, Magma, Vijay Iyer and Ben Monder among others. After the Air Raid is their second album and is the culmination of nearly two years of hard compositional and intensive rehearsal work and showcases a powerful, rhythmically intense and highly structured sound. Review The music of Zevious shrewdly juxtaposes order and its opposite: structural intensity pushed to its breaking point in the most appealing way. These boys are brilliant and fearless. --Vijay Iyer
