Hey Zeus Sign to Argonauata Records
I’ve been lucky enough to catch Hey Zeus live on a couple of occasions, and they’ve never failed to dig into heavy rock that’s classic in its vibe but fueled by a kind of rawer energy. Like if you stand too close there’s a chance you could get kicked. And they wouldn’t mean to do it — they’re not being dicks or anything like that — but the mic is swinging and kicks are being tossed out there and let’s face it: They’re troublemakers. With members having roots in operations like Lamont, White Dynomite, Wonderdrug Records and Motherboar, a high-energy approach isn’t necessarily a huge surprise, and one looks forward to finding out how they’ll sustain that thrust for the duration of a full-length album — though honestly, they’ve put out six-by-my-count digital singles on their Bandcamp page, and if they wanted to make a record out of those with one or two other tracks, I’m sure they could, so maybe we already know how it’ll all turn out.
It’ll turn out loud.
From the PR wire:
Excited to announce that U.S. Heavy Rockers HEY ZEUS are now part of Argonauta Records family!
Hey Zeus were born with the single mission of bringing to life a rock and roll riot. With elements both classic and modern, gripping songs and just enough punk attitude to let you know when it’s time to screw off (now works), their stage presence and songwriting tap into something essential and primal about heavy rock and roll and leave tired crowds begging for more.
Across their debut single and split with White Dynomite, they’ve proven to be an utter powerhouse, and you should expect no less with the arrival of their debut full-length later this year.
“Over the past four years we have been blasting massive riffage & volume all up and down the Eastern U.S.” the band says “We are proud as hell to finally have our first release coming this fall through the fine folks at Argonauta Records!”
