From the beginning, ZOX has managed to build cohesion out of contrast. Look

no further than the band’s twin frontmen: one is a tattoo-covered

conservatory violinist with a history of trashing dressing rooms at Carnegie

Hall, and the other a buttoned-down Type-A who turned down an offer from

Stanford Law School to keep up the band. ZOX’s eclecticism has endeared them

to their cultish following, but they have remained largely on the fringe of

mainstream media. Instead, the band has thrived in the chaotic wilderness of

the internet underground, developing the rare skill of writing meaningful,

memorable pop songs that are genuinely interesting to listen to. Over the

last four years, ZOX has sold thirty-five thousand albums, performed at the

legendary Reading & Leeds festivals in the UK, and logged nearly 1,000 shows

with everyone from the Warped Tour to Rusted Root. They’ve developed an

unusual sound, which features an electric violin run into a guitar amp,

earnest, vivid lyrics threaded through unadorned melodies, and a rhythm

section that seems to swing effortlessly between making you dance and making

you think. And with the release of "Line in the Sand", their third album and

first on LA’s SideOneDummyRecords (Gogol Bordello, Mighty Mighty Bosstones,

Flogging Molly), ZOX demonstrates that contrast is, in the end, what makes

things stand out.



Produced by John Goodmanson (Death Cab for Cutie, Sleater-Kinney, Harvey

Danger) the 11 songs on "Line in the Sand" are equal parts 80s college

radio, modern indie rock, and timeless folk. The band’s legendary live show

has long been a dynamic mix of playful mayhem and emotional contemplation;

this album is the first to capture both extremes. The triumphant title

track, the despondent-but-uplifting “Goodnight”, and the gorgeous “Seventh

Avenue Prophet” have a catchiness, a lyrical poise and an instrumental

intricacy that make them resonate, listen after listen.
