In 2000, Zircon emerged as one of Massachusetts' most promising Black/Death metal bands, playing several high-profile shows including opening for Mayhem, Dark Funeral, Cryptopsy and the 2001 New England Metal & Hardcore Festival. However, various circumstances caused Zircon to disband just as the group was starting to take off. In 2004, Scott (guitar/vocals) and Eric (drums) re-formed Zircon, asking Chris (bass) to fill the void left by original bassist Joel. A few months later, Jay (guitar) moved back to Massachusetts and rejoined Zircon to complete the lineup.
In 2007 Oak Knoll Productions is releasing our first CD "Vastlands" as a split with New York black metal band Nephillim.
Zircon was one of four nominees for the "Best Metal Act" in the 2006 Worcester Music Awards, sponsored by The Pulse magazine.
Recent live appearances include shows with Necrophagist, 1349, Goatwhore, Unleashed, Enslaved, Dark Funeral, Belphegor, Immolation, Vital Remains, Six Feet Under, Decapitated, Krisiun, Cattle Decapitation & 2 back-to-back shows with Cryptopsy.
