Formed in the Fall of 2006 by Paul and Rob who spent many months rehearsing and searching for the right drummer. Eventually, a formidable character emerged named Crash Landing. He brought with him an extraordinary drum kit and a goat skull. After several months of practicing in living rooms, converted chicken shacks, industrial warehouse spaces, and an octagon on a hill, a stinky rehearsal space was secured with some of the finer Rock bands in Arcata. A 5 song demo was recorded at Fire Planet Studios on 7/23/07 and was released on 8/24/07. Crash Landing and Rob Amerman recorded their final demo with The Zygoats on 2/18/08 at Fire Planet Studios which was released on 6/11/08. ZB replaced Crash Landing in 3/08 and bassist Curtis Barry joined in 9/08. The Zygoats recorded their debut EP "Elusive Center of Gravity" from 1/2-1/4/09 with help from Pablo Midence in Loleta, CA with mastering by Antreo Pukay at Jackpot! Portland, Oregon. It was released on 7/30/09 and is now available at all Humboldt County record stores and at shows. The Zygoats welcome new bassist Michael Baker.
