ZooN Releasing Debut LP DeeP on Dec. 19

Posted in Whathaveyou on December 8th, 2015 by JJ Koczan

Sometimes you have a leisure suit, and sometimes you put it to good use. Netherlands-based newcomers ZooN will issue their debut full-length, DeeP, on Dec. 19 through Lighttown Fidelity. The band’s guitarist, Ron van Herpen, has a pedigree that traces back to The Devil’s Blood and Astrosoniq — the Wizards of Oss themselves — so there’s some immediate interest there, but if that’s not enough to grab attention, the laid-on-mustache-thick Nick Caveisms of vocalist Fred van Bergen in the video below for “Darkness Falls” might do the job.

They’ve got a release show planned in Oss for the release date, and moody vibe to spare. Here’s the background, album info, links and video:

DeeP will be released by Lighttown Fidelity, an independent record label from Eindhoven with whom the band share their eagerness to go off the beaten path and find their own way of doing things.

ZooN is melancholic, cathartic, fiery, dark and intense with a twist of 60’s psychedelica.

The exact date of ZooN’s birth is unknown; however it is stated that the parturition took place somewhere in the year 2013 in Oss, the Netherlands. Founding father is Ron [ ex-Astrosoniq and ex-The Devil’s Blood ] who added a couple of friends to the ranks who already earned some spurs in the music scene.

Featuring members of such acclaimed bands as The Devil’s Blood, Astrosoniq, and The Gathering – ZooN conjure up certain expectations, but the album is willing you to put preconceptions to one side to one side and dive right in.
