ZERO is a 3-piece alternative rock outfit from Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia.
The name ZERO symbolises the reset of circumstances in the musical pursuits of the group who are remnants of the now defunct 4-piece pop rock band The Bananas which prematurely broke up due to the creative and musical differences of the quartet. Having regrouped and re-aligned their direction, the band decided to soldier on with a new identity/persona.
Birthed in the office/common hall of a music school in Kepong, Kuala Lumpur via a series of jam sessions between the tail end of 2010 and best part of early 2011, the band’s focus has always been to push themselves creatively in order to put out music with a positive message. Countless hours spent in the rehearsal space building chemistry and understanding between the trio has borne fruit with the writing of numerous songs, some of which have been recorded and will be released in the band’s debut EP.
Heavily influenced by Japanese alternative rock band RIZE and veteran American alt-rockers Red Hot Chili Peppers and Rage Against The Machine, ZERO blends elements of punk, funk, reggae and nu-metal in their music, along with lyrics about life, faith and hope. Known to bring energetic and head-banging live performances, the band is armed with the mission to imprint their code on the world with their own brand of rock.
ZERO has been participating in various music festivals in Malaysia, namely the Music Tornado Festival, IndiePG and Dong Tai Du Music Festival as well as various appearances at different venues around the Klang Valley such as Livefact, Laundry Bar and Atas by BijanFX.
With the release of their debut EP titled “The Way” on 13 September 2017, ZERO is ready get out there and point the world to the way of faith, hope and love. The lead single from the EP, “Superhero” epitomises both the powerful/“in your face” sound of ZERO as well as the hope for a superhero who will one day come to this wretched earth and save us all. The band is planning to tour the EP and take the EP as far as it can go, to spread this message of hope and love. Be sure to catch ZERO at a venue near you very soon!
