ABOUT THE BAND

Izmatik is a progressive metal band with a wide range of influences. Most noticeably, jazz, fusion, and thrash metal shape the band's overall sound. Izmatik is the brainchild of bassist Jeff Curry, based in Tokyo, Japan. The songs can go anywhere from epic anthems to short thrash pieces. The lyrical content is usually about a dystopian future, the empowerment of the individual, or more abstract concepts. Izmatik released a four-song EP entitled "Volt Vein" in 2020 and recently released their first full-length album, "Mystery Step," on October 15, 2022. Jeff and the band are preparing to release a series of singles in 2023.
