These guys are the real thing. Not only are they some of the most fluid instrumentalists, great songs seem to dominate over being flashy and solo heavy. Sonically this new recording sounds microscopic and in your freakin' face. GZ is like a progressive version of dire straits, ill wordplay, and adventurous arrangements. These cats came all the way to Chicago, toteing all their recording gear with them, just to capture a few riffs from me. Needless to say, they mean holy biz!

A quest to capture the essence of pop. Not the "pandering on purpose" pop we are all familiar with but the rigorous, risk taking music of bands like Steely Dan and Meshell Ndegeocello.... (read more)

Journalist Bill Milkowski called GZ “simply mind-boggling”. Gongzilla first released a series of mostly instrumental albums featuring guest guitarists on each one, including jazz fusion legends Allan Holdsworth, David Torn and David Fiuczynski. More recently, Gongzilla has included some U.S. jamband heroes, like guitarist Chuck Garvey of moe., and has emphasized vocals, crafting songs which fuse with improvisational rock. Contradictions and balance; Rowe and Lozaga sing cool songs that will singe your soul while balancing both the hyper precision and the rockin’ mayhem this band is capable of live. The new studio record "Five Even" includes the aforementioned Garvey as well as Jake Cinninger of Umphrey's McGee plus guitarist David "Fuze" Fiuczynski (Screaming Headless Torsos) with bassist Kai Eckhardt of Garaj Mahal sitting-in too!
