The lineup was further fleshed out by Matt Garrison (guitar) in 2004, and James Wicks (bass) in 2007. URIZEN has released two albums; 2005’s “autocratopolis” and 2007’s “Universe EP,” with a follow-up LP expected in 2010. URIZEN’s musical style employs the use of heavy, distorted guitars; frantic, speedy drums; and clean, rock-style vocals. Perhaps the most distinguishing feature of URIZEN’s sound is the dominant presence of synth and keyboards, specifically the use of orchestral strings and 8-bit Nintendo-style electronic sounds. URIZEN is well known for their entertaining and highly involved stage shows, featuring the band dressed in full red-and-white armor-style space suits. Other features of their stage show include the appearance of a giant, 8-foot-tall URIZEN Robot; a 12-foot inflatable cycloptic goo monster; a custom-created silicone conjoined twin creature; and much more! http://www.urizenonline.com/ 2) Urizen (Greece) is Melodic/Atmospheric musicband from Larissa/Greece .
