NEWS RELEASE

Montreal, QC – July 23, 2025

Canadian Stoner Doom Rock Z-COCOON Announces Tour Dates For New EP “Angels”

+ Lyric Video “Dr. Crane”

L to R: Marc Zolla (Guitar/Vocals), Michel Paradis (Drums), John Burton (Bass)

​Montreal, QC’s power trio Z-Cocoon has released their highly anticipated new EP “Angels”, available now as of June 6, 2025, via Earache Digital Distro. This third EP marks a major milestone for the band as their first full-band release since founder Marc Zolla transitioned the project from his solo moniker Pink Cocoon to a full-on trio with Michel Paradis (Drums) and John Burton (Bass).
​
​“Angels” offers a fiery three-track dose of slashing guitar solos, savage blues-metal riffs, and melodic vocals that evoke the spirit of Dio, Pentagram, and classic doom. Recorded and mixed entirely in-house at Casa Cocoon, the EP channels lyrical inspiration from comics and raw personal experiences.
​
​“We’re extremely proud to present Angels—our first recordings as a band. If you love timeless heavy music like Dio, Black Sabbath, Deep Purple, or even blues legends like Hendrix, Trower, and Stevie Ray, blast this loud and buckle up, we’ve got more coming,” says Zolla.​
​
To celebrate the release, Z-Cocoon will hit the road this summer for a series of high-voltage live shows in Ontario and Quebec (listed below).

Tour Dates:​
Aug 1 – Oshawa, ON – The Atria
Aug 2 – Toronto, ON – Duffy’s Tavern
Aug 9 – Longueuil, QC – Le Barrage
Aug 30 – Ottawa, ON – Avant Garde Bar
Sept 13 – Montreal, QC – P’tit Ours

Following the “Angels” EP, Z-Cocoon will have an album’s worth of music and more to be recorded and released.

“”Angels” testifies that Z-Cocoon remains the solid craftsman of a heavy, unadorned stoner rock blues.” – Music Waves

“Fans can expect an EP from three very energetic pieces, true to what they hear live. The guitar solos, tinged with blues, display a metallic touch, and are counterbalanced by melodic and catchy vocal lines, in the spirit of Dio or Pentagram. Angels is a clever mix of heavy blues, of doom metal and of rock n roll, with groovy riffs, dark vocals and sharp solos that swing loudly. T” – Metal Universe

“On “Angels” the group presents three pieces with riff-heavy but rather low-melody heavy rock. In the case of Z-COCOON, the term “Power Trio”, which is often used in three-member formations, is not an empty phrase, but rather an accurate description.” – PowerMetal.de​
​
​“Stoner Rock RULES! The new EP ‘Angels’ from Montreal’s Z-Cocoon is a 1-2-3 punch of three sure to please new tracks. Heavy, fat and catchy as hell…tracks like ‘Truth Don’t Matter’ are earworms you won’t be able to shake all day. Experience Z-Cocoon on your Home for the Best New Rock… W-J-O-EEEE” – WJOE – Findlay’s Home for Rock & Roll

“Z-Cocoon is firmly grounded in blues-heavy stoner rock, it also shows an awareness of other sides of rock and hip-hop that often the sub-genre completely walls itself off from. Little things like short interjections from the backing vocals, a willingness to put vocals ahead of guitars, and a thick-as-fuck kick drum sound — tweaks like that combine with the Sabbathian riffs and dynamic vocals for a pretty addictive listen.” – Invisible Oranges

“This EP does a great job of showcasing Zolla’s chops as a songwriter and as a performer. I personally find Zolla to be a great vocalist, and each of the tracks on here allow him to flex his mid-to-high range voice and sort of nasally cadence. I love the way he adds a rasp into his voice.” – Where Strides the Behemoth

Second song – Just Tell Me – has an “Audioslave” quality to it with Marc’s vocals and some of the music that appears at the start. However, Marc switches things up a bit and plays some classic “Hard Rock” melodies and superb vocals for the standout song on the EP. – Outlaws of the Sun Blog

Montreal, Canada’s Z-Cocoon has unveiled their new EP “Angels”, out now as of June 6th, 2025, via Earache Digital Distro. This third EP is the first full band release from Z-Cocoon, which Marc Zolla founded as a solo endeavour in 2017 under the previous moniker Pink Cocoon.

Fans can expect a three-track EP that is very energetic and sounds exactly like what’s recorded.

“We are extremely excited to release our new EP, Angels, to the world! It’s the first recordings that were performed as a band, and everything recorded was mixed in-house at Casa Cocoon. Very proud of the outcome. We have a lot more music coming after this EP, and we can’t wait to keep this cocoon train rolling. If you’re into the classics such as Dio, Sabbath, Deep Purple, or blues guys such as Hendrix, Trower, Stevie Ray, or just dig stoner rock/ doom metal but looking for something a little different, THEN TAKE A LISTEN AND PUT IT LOUD!” adds Zolla.

Canadian Stoner Doom Rock Z-COCOON Unveils “Dr. Crane” Off New EP “Angels” Out June 2025

L to R: Marc Zolla (Guitar/Vocals), Michel Paradis (Drums), John Burton (Bass)

Montreal, Canada’s Z-Cocoon announces the release of their new EP “Angels” out on June 6th, 2025, via Earache Digital Distro. This third EP is the first full band release from Z-Cocoon, which was founded by Marc Zolla as a solo endeavour in 2017 under the previous moniker Pink Cocoon. Now a power trio with Michel Paradis (Drums) and John Burton (Bass), are prepared to offer electrically-charged heavy music with savage guitar jabs, rockin’ blues, and hot solos.

Fans can expect a three-track EP that is very energetic and sounds exactly like what’s recorded. The guitar solos are very bluesy yet metal-sounding, and are contrasted with catchy melodic vocals, reminiscent of DIO or Pentagram.

“I’m a big fan of songs that have clear and loud vocals where you can sing along and understand and interpret what the song is about, not just noise and a riff,” adds Zolla.

Today, Z-Cocoon unveils the opening track and heavy bluesy single “Dr. Crane”, inspired by the villain in the Batman Universe, Dr.Crane, aka The Scarecrow.

“Dr. Crane is exactly what Z-Cocoon is all about! Heavy riffs, clean vocals, and lots of blues power! If you like poisoning people’s minds with fear, such as The Scarecrow in Batman, then here you have it. Or if you’re looking for a good heavy song to listen to while working out or doing physical work, or you wanna let loose in your speakers and relax, this is the song for you! Make sure to play it loud for the ultimate listening experience, preferably with good speakers to feel that sound and panning!” adds Zolla.

Loud and dynamic, listen to “Dr. Crane” at https://youtu.be/xw12ONGjjxs

Following the “Angels” EP, Z-Cocoon will have an album worth of music and more that will be recorded and released. If you’re into the classics such as Dio, Sabbath, Deep Purple, or blues guys such as Hendrix, Trower, Stevie Ray, or just dig stoner rock/ doom metal, but looking for something a little different, then take a listen and put Z-Cocoon on LOUD!

=============================================

About The EP Artwork:

I really love collecting comics, so I wanted something similar to Batman. My girlfriend Camille Grenier is very good at drawing and designing tattoos, so I mentioned I wanted a bat/gargoyle looking down on the city with a Fender Strat, sort of like the gargoyle is coming back from the dead to show the city what he’s got waiting to show his music. The dark/gothic aesthetic fits in with how the music feels. A mix of comic/dark/gothic aesthetic and the guitar is put on the cover to pay homage to most blues album covers, where they’re holding their guitar or a Fender Strat that always looked cool.

About The EP:
It’s a mix of heavy blues meets doom metal, meets rock n roll. Heavy grooving riffs and dark vocals with slashing swinging solos. Lyrically inspired by comics and personal experiences.

Track by Track:

1. Dr. Crane: heavy bluesy song about Dr.Crane, aka The Scarecrow (one of the villains in the Batman Universe)

2. Truth Don’t Matter: exactly what the title says. Very Pentagram-inspired riff, but then catchy. I was actually listening to a lot of Biggie Smalls to get the inspiration to cut instruments so the vocals stand out in the “truth don’t matter” hook.

3. For My Life: Fiction about protecting my home from invading demons, spirits, and vampires. I would say inspired by horror movies and comics in general. Long song with a heavy doom metal style riff and a breakdown section to mix it up a little bit, and obviously a nice guitar solo.

L to R: Marc Zolla (Guitar/Vocals), Michel Paradis (Drums), John Burton (Bass)

Z-Cocoon originally started as solo project by Marc Zolla in 2017 with many self released EPs and singles. It is now a power trio mixing elements of stoner rock, heavy blues and classic heavy metal. The new EP Angels recorded by Zolla, Johnny B and Michel in studio features 3 new songs. Electrically-charged heavy music with savage guitar jabs, rockin’ blues and hot solos!
