It champions a crushing, and innovative, blend of hardcore, metalcore, and post-hardcore, showing the noisemakers at their very best.

Severance is also a taste of their upcoming debut EP, Hereditary, officially set to drop on Friday, November 18th – just one sleep away! 

Check out the full EP exclusive to Hysteria below.

ZUKØ joined forces in the COVID-19 era, finding their sound amongst all the world’s chaos. Their origin story kicked off with guitarist Logan Gill, drummer Jordan Bellchambers and bassist Ben Matthews (formerly of Bled Out) teaming up with frontman Jesse Hud for a couple of writing/jam sessions. 

The band also features Nato Laenen on guitar, with their former member Dave Thomson also playing an active role despite now living in Canberra.

ZUKØs discography includes belters like Roe Ct and KAMIKAZE, which have racked up thousands of streams on Spotify. Their touring resume is just as impressive, with support slots for the likes of Among The Ruined, Hang ‘Em High, Deadweight80, Grizzlyshark, Nervous Light, and We Set Signals.

Severance is available at all major online stores and streaming services now. Give it a spin; we reckon with more tracks of this calibre, it won’t be long till ZUKØ are in the same league as their scene heroes Knocked Loose and Varials.
