Zao have dropped a new song titled “Observed/Observer” from their new album, “The Well-Intentioned Virus“, which itself is out December 09th on their own Observed/Observer Recordings. Pre-orders for the album are now available at this location. Frontman Dan Weyandt commented:
“It is about our personal role in the material universe. We are the culmination of all that exists observing and experiencing itself, while at the same time our behaviors and actions are being observed and experienced. Oneness and nothingness existing at the same time.”
Drummer Jeff Gretz added:
“This is probably the first time the band has made a record where there was no ‘end-game.’ We just kept building up songs until we had a batch that we felt worked together as an album. Nobody was watching us or pushing a deadline. By the time we got to that point, we realized the hard part of funding and making the actual recording was already done. It just made sense to put it out ourselves. The whole thing could implode at any minute, but that seems to be the way the band does it’s best work, hanging on for dear life.”
