Zior is a hard rock band with progressive influences, known for incorporating occult themes in their lyrics and stage performances. Their self-titled album, released by Akarma Records, includes the original tracks along with nine bonus tracks that were intended for a subsequent, unreleased album. Songs such as "Angel of the Highway," "Your Life Will Burn," and "Before My Eyes Go Blind" feature occult imagery and showcase the band's distinctive style. In 1973, they released a single titled "Every Inch A Man." Their music sometimes features tribal rhythms, a psychedelic sound typical of the 1970s. The album "Zior" is considered a notable example of hard rock from that era and has been appreciated by fans of stoner rock and the New Wave of British Heavy Metal (NWOBHM). The album artwork was created by the same artist responsible for Black Sabbath's debut album cover.
