ART ZOYD BOX SET IS MATERIALISING

The Cuneiform record label update says that the Art Zoyd box set will be out on October 27.

44 ½ is a landmark release. It is a monumental work - 12 CDs, 2 DVDs, 2 booklets, 2 posters, encased in a stunning box designed by UK graphic designer/artist Max Franosch. It is the first box set released by the band Art Zoyd, and the first box set released by Cuneiform Records. It is also an important work, a comprehensive collection of all of the previously unreleased material created by Art Zoyd, one of the late-20th/early 21st century's most significant European New Music ensembles. 44 ½ focuses the spotlight on and unearths the treasure chest known as Art Zoyd, genre-defiant pioneers who fused elements and instrumentation from classical, rock and electronic music and helped pave the way for Chamber Rock, post-rock and post-classical music, and other 21st Century's genre transcendant music.

ART ZOYD - GENERATION SANS FUTUR

  • art zoyd: génération sans futur
        (1980, lp, france, atem)
French band Art Zoyd released "Génération Sans Futur" (generation without a future") in 1980. It was their third album.
On "Génération Sans Futur", Art Zoyd mixes progressive rock with tribal rhythms and contemprary classical music. The perfect example of the Rock In Opposition (RIO) movement.

The excellent Sub Rosa record label has recently re-released "Génération Sans Futur" on both LP and CD. The re-issue comes with new artwork and the CD also with an extra track.
