KillZen (Live)

Art is said to be a reflection of society, an experience reflecting one’s inner self. KillZen present a journey into the soul, where dreams crossfade into reality. Their music tries to capture the nuances of the human spectrum of emotion, soundtracking moments and emotions which words fail to express. They’re genre-free and boundless, like a constantly flowing river. Sometimes immersed in a calming silence and other times privy to the thrashing of the flow.

Optimal Anxiety will impart the very best of lesser-known musical gems from every genre, outlining an alternative history of music over a one hour period.
