ZRIN
ZRIN - Zero Respect Is Negative
Out of the ashes of 2003 - (The band not the year) comes ZRIN. Keeping with the same theory of free music design ZRIN strives to make its own music rather than follow and set path. Dark melodic and at some times angry. High quality and crisp all the way to lo-fi and dirty. ZRIN trys to cover all forms of expression to put there emotions out fo all to examine and relate to.
Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Basicy ZRIN started when Bobby V. (Robert Cooper) moved to phoenix after leaving the band CVT. The drummer from CVT came to Phoenix and Bobby and Ren (Rene Paredez) started the band 2003. After 2003s release foucs shifted to a sort of solo work from Bobby V. After working on ZRIN Bobby V. asked Ren to play hes live drums for ZRIN and as of now ZRIN VOl 1, 2, and Vol 3 are done. We are looking foward to the future and the prospect of maybe some live shows in El Paso and Phoenix. UPDATE: New cd for 2013 on its way! Keep a look out for Vol. 4
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
Our live shows have alot of electronics involved. There are two members of ZRIN Live. The drummer Ren (Rene Paredez) and Bobby V. (Robert Cooper) We love to preform live anywhere that wants us and for anyone open to accept our type of music, and even the ones not open to accept us. When a crowd knows your songs and sings along with you it is one of the greatest rewards of being a band.
