Žen

Formed in Zagreb, in 2009, the four-piece audio-visual band Žen combines intricate arrangments and immersive live visuals to create a fully authentic psy indie rock experience.
Žen playfully dissects gender stereotypes and connects the boundaries of audio and visual art, evoking journeys through vocal harmonization submerged in a progressive symbiosis of guitar, bass, drums and synths. If we were to try to define them by genre, the closest we would get is a complex form of indie-rock, informed by various style and genre characteristics ranging from post-rock to shoegaze, math-rock, vintage synthwave and experimental electronics.
Their debut album, I onda je sve počelo, was released in May 2013 under the queer feminist label Unrecords from Vienna, A. Žen was also included in several compilations: Bistro na rubu šume vol.2, Kompot berba 2013 and !OPASNA! Ženska Muzika, while the Balkan under the radar vol.2: The Black Wave compilation, contained a remix of the song Iskrenost je posebna (Andrea Giordani remix).
Early August this year, they announced new album Jantar with a single Kraj Početak. Album has been released on August 30th under the Unrecords label.
Žen has played numerous concerts and gained a loyal audience in the wider region. They’ve played in Croatia, Slovenia, Serbia, Bosnia and Herzegovina, Macedonia, Austria, Germany, Slovakia, Czech Republic, Switzerland, France, Italy, Denmark and Sweden.
