Few bands can be simultaneously timeless and relevant, but that’s exactly the hi-wire act Zeus has become. Signed to Arts And Crafts and the sometimes support of Broken Social Scene, Zeus are not so much typical of the Canadian indie scene as they are classic British rock circa 1974-1975.
Taking their name from a mythological God, Zeus are a three-headed beast. Boasting three lead singers in Mike O'Brien, Carlin Nicholson, and Neil Quinn (not forgetting Rob Drake on drums), the Ontario outfit have gained attention across the pond for their bustling throwback style. A vision of guitars, hair, beards and glasses, you could be forgiven for thinking that this quartet have just been released from a time capsule buried beneath Paul McCartney's basement.
The band are readying the release of 'Bustling Visions', their second LP. This will be released on So Recordings on August 13th, a much anticipated follow up to 2010's Polaris Prize-nominated debut 'Say Us', an album which topped CBC charts, won XM The Verge’s award for Album of the Year, garnered stellar reviews from top rock mags like Q and Uncut and led to shows with Bright Eyes and Belle & Sebastian.
The band released upcoming single 'Are You Gonna Waste My Time' on 31st July, a track you can listen to below.
