Animal Jazz

Group Animal Jazz was born in the remote 1997 under a different name, now lost to history. After a long search of style and change the composition, where the concert-only-possibly in St. Petersburg and beyond, the fall of 2000 came the new name of Animal Jazz, which means "whistle pig". Animal Jazz Music - heavy guitar, with the post-blues base and a desire to symphonic. The rhythm section has something in common with core-teams, like Deftones or Korn. Combined with melodic vocals we have the new style - animaldzhaz-core.

Orientation to the mixture of styles is reflected in the name of the team, because one of the meanings of the word "jazz" in the English interpretation - "vanity, confusion". However, the word "Animal" means an animal, that is, natural, and organizational basis. As a result of the chaos and confusion of styles organically crystallizes whole sound, suggesting on the one hand, the nontrivial harmony, on the other hand, hard power ( "core").
March 16, 2002 issued the first official release of the band - live-album "OrandzhaZ", which included recordings of concerts with the group in 2001-2002. This kind of report "jazz musicians" in front of his audience "of the work done". Album released on label "Caravan Records" on the MC and CD.

May 10, 2002, Mr.. the band released a maxi-single with the enigmatic title "Intermission", which included studio versions of the least characteristic of the swinish sound of things. Autumn will reissue this maxi-single with the inclusion of several remixes of the famous Saint-Petersburg electronics.
