ZiX

About ZiX

ZiX is a heavy metal band which was founded in Beirut in 1998 by bassist Ziad and has been in constant lineup changes ever since.
The ideas that Ziad had had for the band and song direction was met by resistance and misunderstanding, and the lack of synergy and cohesion between the members made it very difficult to have a complete band.
However, early in 2010, ZiX found its perfect line up of international band members who shared the same visions and enthusiasm for the kind of songs that were being composed.
Ziad joined forces with Maya, a vocalist who could cover the heaviest metal songs from bands such as Manowar and Judas Priest. Juan Carrizo from Argentina came next on the lead and rhythm guitars, being a guitarist who had all the textbook skills and techniques, he was able to develop a unique and unseen creativity which burst with feelings.
The whole project and album progress is overseen by Maroun Srour, a metal encyclopedia who reviews all ZiX's new material and gives directions and occasionally blesses us with his tongue twisting lyrics.
The band is now recording their debut album entitled:
“The Sands of Time”
