In 2005 Victor meets up with Jaimie van Hek and Singer/Guitarist Ryan Oldenburger to form the band SYZYGY. Grasping the rawness of grunge and letting it loose in solid up-tempo punk style, it is the simplicity that makes a good song. Together with well arranged three voice harmonies, SyZyGy breaks the stage and wins your heart. Since their EP release party in Hotel Arena on may 15, fifty copies of ‘Let Go’ were sold. The digipack EP ‘Let go’ contains the song Glass Vault.
