New Zero God 
Room 1316 
Athens 
 
Since sharing the stage with massive icons such as New Model Army, The Mission, Sisters Of Mercy, and many others, frontman of New Zero God Mike Pougounas has met a range of talents and names across the industry. Their record deals and theatrical persona tours have taken New Zero God through evolutions and labyrinths as the industry, the fans, and the world around them shifted and influenced every aspect of their direction. Leading to some seriously challenging mental environments, the latest New Zero God record is dedicated to clinging on to life through the love of everything we have to lose. Of Love AndDeath was released on Valentine’s Day and contains eight no-nonsense alternative gothwave originals. With a video made by Panos Skordas of The Art Asylum, the latest single takes us to Room 1316. 
 
An ambient and phantom-like drumbeat begins to rattle with eerie background sounds of synth, effect, and sample. A bass kick then pushes a rhythm into the squish and retrieves a hedonistic melody that’s full of volume and tone. The vocals begin, Mike Pougounas has created a strange effect from some kind of tape distortion to give his voice a rippling and long-distance feel. Are we listening to voices from beyond, made by poltergeist actions on the surface of a lake or is the voice pushing through several layers of ectoplasm to reach us? Maybe he’s on another world and the new alien technology lets us connect. It’s not a dream! We’re in this room and is disconcerting, albeit fun to listen to.
