Sanzen members Ben Kumar and Scott Briggs, guitar and drums respectively, are by no means rookies, that’s for sure. Having previously played in My War, and as a result shared stages with the likes of Sepultura, Entombed and Eyehategod, they’re deserving of at least 16 minutes of your time. The past, as great as it is, is the past, it’s all about Sanzen now. Playing “guitar swinging, rock ‘n’ roll good time music”, as they put it, it’s hardly surprising they’ve managed to land support slots alongside luminaries such as Funeral For A Friend, Bullet For My Valentine, Life Of Agony, Skindred, Downset, Waterdown and more recently Pitchshifter.
Their blend of metallic hardcore, coupled with their rock ‘n’ roll attitude is starting to make serious waves on the UK underground, and it’s surely only a matter of time before those waves flood out and really set tongues waggling. Time will tell if messieurs Eley, Kumar, Briggs, Hamson achieve that feat, but our money is on them to break right out of Gun City and take on the UK, maybe even the world.
