About Me

(SZR) MUSIC IS A LABEL THAT DARES TO RELEASE DARK AND DAZZLING GENRE MELTING MUSIC THAT HAS A POISE FIRMLY ROOTED IN THE TRADITIONS OF MYSTICISM, BUDDHISM, SCIENCE FICTION, SURREALISM AND PROGRESSIVE EXPERIMENTATION. WHILE FUSING MORE FAMILIAR MAINSTREAM AND POPULARIST GENRES SUCH AS ROCK, POP, FOLK, FUNK AND PUNK, (SZR) MUSIC LIKES THEIR ARTISTS TO DROP INTO THE MIX MORE COSMIC AND SEEMINGLY RANDOM ELEMENTS SUCH AS INDUSTRIAL, GOTHIC, ACAPELLA, PSYCHEDELICA, LO-FI, DRONE, SPOKEN WORD MANTRAS AND OUTSIDER ELECTRONICA. MUSIC FOR STARSHIPS? YOU BET! WITH TONGUE FIRMLY IN CHEEK AND A KINDLY SALUTE TO NOVELTY RECORDS, (SZR) MUSIC WOULD RESPECTFULLY LIKE TO SAY WEIRD MUSIC FOR WEIRD TIMES. Sheer Zed's "Music For Your Head" is a rare, peculiar and unusual album that has received airplay on Canadian college radio (Vancouver) and also on the seminal experimental Cincinnati arts programme “An Afternoon Bizarre”. New York’s Irwin Chusid (author of “Songs in the Key of Z”, radio presenter and producer) has sat up and taken note of Sheer Zed’s debut album. To drop a few names…Money Mark, Kid Rock and Gene Simmons have copies of Sheer Zed’s album in their CD collection along with many worldwide connoisseurs of fine top class weirdness. Even though there are only 1000 hard copies of this custom made album, it has already started to attract and allure great interest with its pungent and fecund underground vibosphere. Sheer Zed’s “Music for Your Head” has also been previously available in Los Angeles via such retailers as Borders Books & Music, Tower Records and Amoeba Music in Hollywood. Sheer Zed’s next release, “The Cosmic Glue EP” will feature the track “Soul Distraction” which will be supported by a video sporting dramatic Palm Desert locations with a wild and crazy costumed performance. Sure to please this groundbreaking 1:08 min track will confound, startle and surprise with its quirky, strange and eccentric playfulness. This can be currently seen on the artists MySpace page at www.myspace.com/sheerzed, along with another great video of the same song. Sheer Zed is available on itunes, Napster, eMusic and here on this MySpace page using the excellent SNOCAP service.
