REZN (USA)

Chicago-based cosmic and cataclysmic quartet REZN have mined the stark monochromatic depths of underground metal and fused them with the kaleidoscopic delights of psychedelia, prog rock, and shoegaze. From their inception, the band have been fiercely independent with a fully realized aesthetic and a fervent cult following. As knowledgeable gear heads, experienced sound engineers, and seasoned DIY veterans, REZN have been able to create a body of work devoid of any sonic compromises in their speaker-rattling dirges and heady lysergic forays. Their four self-released albums—Let It Burn (2017), Calm Black Water (2018), Chaotic Divine (2020), and Solace (2023)—have all gone through multiple vinyl pressings without any distribution or retail presence, and the international underground heavy psych world has routinely selected the band for distinguished festival slots across North America and Europe.

Effektgeladen, rhythmisch druckvoll, frei und sphärisch. Das Trio Les Lekin treibt dich in die Stürme der Unendlichkeit und durch mildere Gezeiten. Erdige Drums, Cymbals die das Vakuum zerreißen. Bässe wie ein singender (Raum-)Schiffsrumpf. Und eine Gitarre, die abbildet, was Worte nicht vermögen. „Let it come - a flame’s dance attraction, a look to the inside of ourselves. Let it go - all that threatens us, the mirroring image of the outer world. Let it be - what could an may come, the ignition to a voyage beyond our horizons.“
