Miami-based Latin rock band Volumen Cero was formed in the late ’90s by musicians from South America who were previously playing under the name of Orgasmic Bliss, releasing an independent album in 1996. A year later, the group’s name was changed to Volumen Cero, making its debut while participating in a national contest sponsored by Latin television network Telemundo and becoming one of the finalists. In May of 1998, Volumen Cero’s debut album called Andromeda, produced by Richard Coleman, was released. In addition, the band participated in a tribute to British goth rock act the Cure with “Lovesong” and a similar to Caifanes, featuring “No Dejes Que.” The growing buzz on the band was strong enough to convince Warner Music Latina to sign them in 2001, leading to the release of the Loces album in the summer of 2002. ~ Drago Bonacich, All Music Guide

EL MAR Is the first single of the new album I Can See The Brite Spot (august 2008). The Song talks about being pushed to the edge out of one’s control…The Ever present hooks remain in the new sound of Volumen Cero. The Band experiments with synths and drum loops to get the pulsating drive of “El Mar”.

The Feeling you get while listening to “El Mar” Is a voyage to 1977 a sonic mixture of early New Wave Post Punk and Americana. The album was inspired living in the Los Angeles district of Echo Park. Echo Park is quite bohemian; like the East Village of NY City in late 70’s. Bands such as Beck, Ima robot, Silver Sun Pick Ups, call this hippie hipster community home.

This time around Volumen Cero: is Josh Sonntag (guitars & synths ), Luis Tamblay (synths, vox, bass) and Marthin Chan (guitars And Synths). “I Can See The Brite Spot” was produced by Volumen Cero and Brendan Buckley. The Album was tracked in Los Angeles and Mixed in Monterrey, Mexico by Sacha Triujeque. It’s been 3 years since Volumen Cero put out any new music… Their last album gained them a Best Rock Album Grammy Nomination for Estelar.

“El Mar” will be available digitally starting July 1st. The Video directed by Victor Lau & “Tiger 1” B side will also come part of the single. I can See the Brite Spot will be released October 7th, 2008. Look for Volumen Cero This Fall in a city near you.
