about

I originally released Timeless the clear album in 1982 to keep the music alive while I was living in Hollywood. As the years rolled by, it circled the globe without my knowing via word of mouth, and those with a rare vinyl were making cassettes and sharing them. In 2002, I was living like a human in Nevada working in a casino when I received a letter from a fan telling me how there was a growing interest in Zolar X’s music and Jello Biafra, from the Dead Kennedy’s, had a record label and wanted to reissue Timeless. In August, 2004, Alternative Tentacles Records reissued Timeless.

The digital download contains every track from the ATR CD. I don’t like to compare Zolar X’s music with anybody. We were and are one-of-a-kind. But if I had to, I’d say mix a little Ziggy Stardust and some Zeppelin with a pinch of Mozart. Spice it up with some Beatlesque harmonies and bake it in a hard-core Punk oven.

Their forty year-plus career, until now, was one of the great untold stories of modern pop culture... - Ben Myers ... more

I bought the 12 inch single for Bela Lugosi’s Dead at Fred’s records in St. John’s, Newfoundland in the eighties and it remained a treasured item in my collection until it was lost, left behind, stolen, loaned out, whatever. I accepted that that item was lost to time and likely irreplaceable. Hence my utter shock to see that I will once again hear this evocative masterwork on vinyl along with an extra three tracks. I recall Boys was included on the B-side of that long list single. Thank you! skritti
