THE STORY OF ZO.E
Zo.e was a band of 3 high school friends. In 1993, at the age of 23 they started to play punk rock together with another member : alessandro de caro, who later joined Blueprint.After few shows in the squat and social center's scene of rome they turned into a more introspective and complex sound, mixing different influences from the 90's wave: the emo of mineral,karate and van pelt; post rock of slint, aerial m; post-hardcore of unwound with a little touch of indie taste.In 1995 they split with alessandro and released their first demotape 5 tracks self produced and self distributed. Then, for a couple of shows and for the recording of their only 7"inch split (recorded by matteo of famous top italian indie band Yuppie flu and published by vurt/valium) they played along with matteo ruberto of Moluart. it was 1998. After that they started to spend more and more time in the water, completely fascinated by surfing the waves. Music was still important, but not so relevant. Anyway they started again to play together in 2003 and massimiliano cruciani of blueprint joined them for 1 show in may 2005 and to record few tracks still unreleased... Now the sound is more shoegaze and in a ethereal mood. Rumors of a track in a compilation are to be confirmed... stay tuned
