Planet of Zeus

About

Planet of Zeus isn't just a band; they're a seismic event emanating from the heart of Athens, Greece. Formed in 2000, they’ve steadily carved out a niche as heavy music titans, their sound a potent cocktail of stoner rock grit, bluesy swagger, and a distinctly Hellenic sensibility that transcends mere imitation. Think Clutch chugging beer with Kyuss under the Acropolis. Their discography, from the raw energy of "Eleven the Hard Way" to the more nuanced textures of "Loyal to the Pack," showcases an evolution without sacrificing their core identity: colossal riffs, guttural vocals, and a live performance renowned for its sheer, sweat-drenched intensity. Critical acclaim came with albums like "Macho Libre," solidifying their reputation. Beyond the music, Planet of Zeus embodies a DIY ethos, fiercely independent and committed to their fanbase. They've toured relentlessly across Europe, sharing stages with heavyweights like Clutch, Monster Magnet, and Karma to Burn, building a loyal following through sheer force of will and sonic firepower. Their unapologetic honesty and refusal to compromise make them a vital force in the contemporary rock landscape. They continue to deliver bone-shattering performances, proving their place as one of the most formidable rock acts to emerge from Greece.
