Following the 1987 breakup of Amebix, three of the four members, along with Smartpils bassist Tim Crow, went on to form Zygote in 1988. In the short 3-year existence of the band, they managed to produce a 1990 demo tape and a 1991 full-length, “A Wind of Knives”. Pine Hill Records have now released the first ever US issue of “A Wind Of Knives” as a limited pressing of 250 pieces on silver vinyl. This obscure, yet underground appreciated album is a lyrically grim, musically haunting piece that sits somewhere between post-punk, crust and the Amebix sound. This dark, experimental album allows you to hear the direction Amebix would have gone in had they stayed together.
 
A Wind of Knives” is now available on vinyl here and via Spotify & Deezer
