Biography
ZZZZZZ is a musical project by the band's only member. The music had existed for a few years but solely as tangible ideas and thoughts in the head of ZZZZZZ. The band decided that the rest of the world should have the opportunity to experience the music. The album "Holeigans" took form in &-studio (et studio) in Stockholm, Sweden.
How the album got the name "Holeigans" is based on the following:
At Liljevalchs (Sweden's most reknowned gallery) 2000 Spring Exhibition, Tomas Johansson was exhibiting three paintings - "Which hole is the way out?", "Holeigan Spiral" and "The Bump" - which depicted holeigans sitting in their holes. They are large, clinical monotoned paintings with an alien chap as central figure. The whole concept is built on a simple "expressionlessness", which, in its simplicity, becomes extremely expressive. With the creation of the music, so too was the holeigan spirit was woven into its creation. These figures also got to decorate the CD cover. The music is not about the holeigans, but a creation in the same spirit.; minimilistic, clinical with a pinch of humour carried forward by a calming desolate feeling.
ZZZZZZ's only member has his musical background as a bassisit in heavy and death/trash metal bands, but the influences span over a much broader spectrum. On the album "Holeigans" you can't help but see there is a certain love for the German "krautrockers", Kraftwerk.
The songs on the CD are produced, composed, arranged, performed and recorded by ZZZZZZ, except "ZZZZZZ (I Babe remix by Lizette)" that is produced, arranged, performed and recorded by Lizette von Panajott. Lizette is also responsible for the mix of the album. Mastering done by Henrik Jonsson at Polar Studios, Stockholm, Sweden.
