VI·ZA RELEASE SECOND TRACK “CASH KARMA”

Los Angeles, CA – VI·ZA is excited to announce the release of the group’s second new song for 2017. Following the release of initial track “Viktorious” amidst excitement and acclaim, “Cash Karma” is continuing in the steps of the bands innovative marketing approach to unveil new tracks once per month. After returning to the stage in early 2017 the band has been writing and recording actively the past several months, concentrating on composing new material as the band enters a new chapter of its growth.

 

“Cash Karma is a song inspired by superstition so hopefully the song in itself will bring us some good fortune.” said K’noup.

The songwriting effort of the group has already resulted in a near complete process of recording and mixing 6 exciting and groundbreaking tracks, with plans underway for even more new material to continue moving forward.

 

“We are really pumped to release songs in this manner,” said Kzirian. “Feels like we are constantly providing something new and fresh in terms of content for fans, and in the modern age it’s the right way to go. We feel we have a more mature – yet still authentic VI·ZA sound. It’s very exhilarating as we feel like we are growing and pushing the envelope of what we can do.”

 

The new track offers a glimpse of how the band blends various styles together in one song, touching on delicate melody-infused verses of oud, duduk and percussion before organically developing to rock influenced choruses with swelling guitars, bass and vocals.

 

“I’m excited for fans to hear what an oud can sound like as I’ve experimented with lots of different tones and effects. I still use the natural acoustic for our softer moments – but this track was the right fit to push the oud in the bridge with the electric guitar feel, although with no frets, it’s a truly unique and distinguishing sound. I think fans will get a kick out of it,” added Kzirian.

 

The band has been recording with talented recording engineer Yury Anisonyan out of Live Wire Studios in Los Angeles. Anisonyan brings his expertise and unique mixing philosophy to VI·ZA’s sound, creating a unique tapestry of soundscapes.

 

Each new song will be released on VI·ZA’s dedicated YouTube channel at www.youtube.com/user/ExperienceViza.

 

VI·ZA’s new material is an exploration of sounds both old and new, and is sure to pique the interest of both diehard fans and new listeners. With vocals and a diverse array of instruments like the oud and duduk to combine with guitar, bass and drums, there are some exciting possibilities when it comes to both the core and potential artistic horizon of the band’s sound. Song titles include “Cash Karma”, “Viktorious”, “A World of Broken Mirrors”, “Aphrodite”, “Velvet Shade” and “Vicious Game”, representing diverse but resonant themes ranging from satire, continuity and social commentary to raw human emotions like love, loss and passion. Whether it’s VI·ZA’s bread and butter energetic style of pulsing percussion with exotic melodies or experimental ideas exploring the spiritual side of their art, the guys promise to keep things interesting with fans coming back for more, especially when it comes to documenting their work in the studio.

 

Keep an eye out for the band on Facebook (www.facebook.com/vizamusic) and Instagram (@vizamusic).

 

After releasing several albums, performing at major festivals worldwide, joining System of a Down frontman SerjTankian for two worldwide tours and supporting Gogol Bordello and Skindred, VIZA is looking to explore a new dimension of sound. As a fixture of the Sunset club scene known for energetic and captivating live performances, VIZA is sure to deliver excitement in the form of shows and new songs in 2017.

New VI*ZA music to be released every first of the month until we accumulate an entire album.

Lyrics:

Numb your heart on mine,
take the poisoned bait,
pet the porcupine,
but pull out all its needles.
Pay the toll on time or burn the bridge that ridicules you.

I can’t find myself,
but I can see the price tag on your head.
I don’t care what anybody says.
I’d rather you be sorry and be dead,
my rabbit foot will summon your ‘Cash Karma’.

Rent the poet’s rhyme,
with an attitude,
eat the porcupine,
swallow all its needles.
Pay the toll on time or burn the bridge that ridicules you.

I can’t find myself,
but I can see the price tag on your head.
I don’t care what anybody says.
I’d rather you be sorry and be dead,
my rabbit foot will summon your ‘Cash Karma’.

Secrets are nothing more than clothes buried in your soul.
Secrets are nothing more than shame sentenced to disdain.
Secrets are nothing more than clothes buried in my soul.

I can’t find myself,
but I can see the price tag on your head.
I don’t care what anybody says.
I’d rather you be sorry and be dead,
my rabbit foot will summon your ‘Cash Karma’.
