They're defining themselves in your Facebook Page as "Voice Means Nothing". It's a good definition to the ZAYN's third full-length called "Fields Of God". The band was founded in 2011 because they seemed to feel a need to add a little serenity and cleanliness to Metal music. ZAYN means "beauty" in Arabian and their song is influenced by Metalcore, Progressive using many modern elements.
The first song "14, 1" is a little introduction and feels like like a trip within oneself. "Ungodless" is a typical Metalcore instrumental varying the solos with feeling with the heavy parts, not unlike the duality that humans experience in their life. In "Vicarivs Filii Dei (Animal Rituals)", had an anger battery in the beginning with influence from LIMP BIZKIT's song "Roling" - from the album "Chocolate Starfish And The Hot Dog Flavored Water" with many choppy rhythm patterns, typical from drummers like Mike Portnoy - ex-DREAM THEATER. The dark and heavy atmosphere stills in "They Will Not Have The Stars". The melody could be fit into any Djent Metal song like "Bleed", from MESHUGGAH. The guitars are heavy, progressive, talented and raw, with talented musicians making difference in the music.
In "Ode To Bourgeoisie - Philistine Mentality", more off-the-wall rhythms that Portnoy could have passed on to Alen Rožman, accompanied by quasi-industrial guitars. The Djent-meets-Metalcore continues during the whole album in "Emperor, Guide Us", "To Think Is a Sin", "Fields Of God" and "11, 4". ZAYN made fantastic work in "Fields Of God". If you like an instrumental album, with many experiences during your listening and had the mind and ears open, take a chance with the Croatian quartet
