Feb. 18, 2015, San Francisco – The Quietus is sharing new music from Zu’s forthcoming album, Cortar Todo, with the title track from the March 24 available today via their website: (http://thequietus.com/articles/17252-listen-new-music-from-zu).

Five years since their last full length on Ipecac, the critically acclaimed Carboniferous, and following a three year hiatus, ZU returned in May 2014 with the release of a brand new EP, Goodnight Civilization(Trost Records) and with a line up change that introduced the mighty Gabe Serbian, best known as the drummer for the legendary Californian band, The Locust.

Recorded in the countryside near Bologna, Italy, in the summer of 2014, Cortar Todo features some very special guests including keyboard player Joey Karam (The Locust), Italian guitar maverick Stefano Pilia (who regularly plays with Mike Watt, David Grubbs and Rokia Traore), and perhaps most unexpectedly, a field recording of an indigenous Shipibo medicine man recorded by Massimo during his travels around the Amazon.
