How, do you think, does the internet (or mp3) change the music industry?
More educated buying. No more buying a cd just for one or two songs.
Would you sign a record contract with a major label?
Not sure...depends on the terms
Band History:
Low Z music has been described as a melodic hard rock sound with heavy grooves. Imagine a Tool and Pink Floyd-ish sound. The original songs are dynamic, moody, and extremely well sound crafted. NO scream singing!
The Low Z sound has evolved nicely over the years since Chris and Joe met at the Gwinnett School of Rock. Before there was Low Z, Chris and Joe added Josiah and began gigging under different band names with different singers and bass players. In the early years they played places like The Somber Reptile and then moved on to play the Cotton Club. Once Colsen joined the band on bass and Joe took over vocals the line up was solidified and Low Z was formed. With the line up set in stone the guys began to manufacture a sound that was as fresh as it was classic while at the same time very refined but raw.
