Zone Six
Full Mental Jacket
Zone Six was founded in August 1997, when Dave (also known as Sula Bassana) got a concert request for Liquid Visions, but this band was not able to play the show. So Dave had the idea to form a new band just for this: Zone Six. The idea behind was to play long tranceful space- and acid-rock improvisations. Now, 26 years later, this project is still existing and has a new, dark and powerful album out. The basics were recorded within the first three days of March 2022, influenced/affected by the news of the just started Russian war on Ukraine. It took more than a year to do some overdubs and produce the whole album out of these jams/composings (in a few days/weekends). In the track 'Slingshot,' which covers the whole A-side of the LP, you can hear some ghostly guitar sounds from the older Zone Six guitar player Rainer Neeff and some soprano sax by saxophone legend Gottfried Klier, who already played in the '70s in the band Engerling among many others and is now living around the corner from Dave. The playing time of the tracks is interesting too, leading to a interesting year in history and art: 1954. But that is only a funny sidenote. The CD comes in 4 page digifile, limited to 300 copies!
