Angry Zeta was founded in 2015 in Buenos Aires Argentina as originally a traditional bluegrass country hillbilly street busker band and were then constantly integrated into the local punk scene and their clubs where they found their punk and Rock’n’Roll Crust Sound, today they mix everything into a molasses of punk Hillbilly folk and raw street music together, they tour all over the world in clubs, festivals (Muddy Roots, Billy rock, san pedro country music festival, San Antonio Rat Parts Festival, Kids and Billy’s, Open Folk Festival, Rotterdam Bluegrass Festival, etc) and on the street, amplified or fully acoustically flexible, they give you such a great folk punk that you don’t always know where you are standing, what we love on Angry Zeta the most: they Started Small and they are walking their very own way to the top of Crust Street Rock’n’Roll Folk Punk Heaven.
Angry Zeta are an unlikely mix of punk, country and Hillbilly hoe-downs from the even more unlikely locale of Argentina! But rather than taking the usual mid-mannered, middle-class approach to folk or (eek!) world-music, these guys are intent on putting some genuine attitude and authenticity into their music, just the same way that The Pogues approached Irish music, or Kultur Shock approached Balkan culture. It’s not done in an affected or pretentious way, it’s done with a real love and joy for the songs and their words (even if you shouldn’t take them entirely seriously!) Like the Hickoids before them, this is music that’s here to be enjoyed. I could imagine these guys whipping-up a real storm onstage, but whether you get a chance to see them live or not, do your best to hear this album.
