Erich Zann is a melodic, technical speedmetal band from Portland, Maine. They have two releases, "The Art of Impact"(1993), and "Reflections of a Troubled Time"(1996).
Band/artist history
Erich Zann was formed in 1992 by Guitarist Brent Miller and vocalist Edwin Ecker. The two soon recruited bassist Sonny True and drummer Kevin Risch and began writing material for their debut demo "The Art of Impact." The five song release garnered the band rave reviews in such publications as Heavy Oder Was?!, Feast or Famine, and Metal On Metal. Being primarily a recording project, it would be until 1996 that the writing partnership of Miller and Ecker would churn out another CD. This one, "Reflections of a Troubled Time", would showcase the group as a much tighter outfit, highlighted by intense musicianship and a more focused songwriting abillity. In 2003, the band have re-issued the two releases onto one nine - song CD, re-mastered and with new artwork.

Your musical influences
For this particuliar project, we we're really into the old school 'underground' Metal scene. Mercyful Fate, Death Angel, , Powermad, Realm; alot of music hardly anyone, besides us, had ever heard before. The musicianship in some of these bands was incredible and they never received nearly the credit they deserved.
What equipment do you use?
One cheap microphone and one cheezy soundman...
