Press

  • "One of Georgia's many excellent metal outfits, ZOROASTER play a particularly slow 'n' sludgy brand of the heaviest kind of rock 'n' roll. Prepare to have your face melted off-gradually." - PASTE
  • "ZOROASTER weave Moog, Theremin, brass, and hella more psychedelia into their doom. I can't stop listening." - PITCHFORK
  • "the psych-metalists...are-in some shape, form or arrangement-helping to evolve metal beyond its boundaries, while speaking directly to both its cornerstone and niche influences and avoiding any high-minded alienation of the genre's loyal enthusiasts. But most importantly, they will blow your minds as readily as your speakers." - BLURT
  • "Zoroaster, from Atlanta, has progressed over the last decade into a pretty wonderful band...It's center-of-gravity music." - THE NEW YORK TIMES
  • "The music "Matador" offers sounds like it time traveled out of a 1970s jam session. The guitars and bass are fuzzy and thick, enveloping listeners in a cloud of smoke that would do Black Sabbath or Pentagram proud. The final product recalls bygone eras in metal history while retaining a sense of freshness, a gnarly trick for a band formed in 2003." - THE WASHINGTON TIMES
