Tucked away in Perth, Western Australia’s Secret Harbour, Jupiter Zeus are the very definition of a band who seem to have come from nowhere... but their arrival - laden with walls of guitar, hypnotic rhythms and almost psychedelic vocals – is far from quiet.
Debuting with the stunning Green Mosquito EP, it’s quite apparent that Jupiter Zeus aren’t exactly first timers. Their previous incarnation, Nebula, boasted a similarly cosmic slant to the heavier side of rock, and the band were pioneering in breaking ground in South East Asia, earning solid fan-bases in Indonesia and Malaysia. With a similarly global scope, but the advantage of experience at their disposal, Jupiter Zeus are looking past the horizon of the Indian Ocean to a big world of endless possibilities.
At its heart, the band’s music is about songs... epic, soaring and teaming with hooks. The decorations they put on these songs – tastes of the last 30 years of rock music – identify and define the band on a more specific, potent level. Atoms of worlds colliding, exploding into new compounds and creating new life. A self-evolving universe of sound.
So it’s time to get out of Secret Harbour for a while and hit the road... see what’s out there. From the stage or simply blasting in your car; the sound of Jupiter Zeus is as monolithic and grand as their namesakes.
