"Sometimes, bands with progressive/djent leanings manage to create that perfect unison between heavy and gentle. And none in recent times have achieved it with more expertise than TANZEN." - Everything is Noise
"The music instantly reminds one of acts like Monuments and Tesseract, without ever becoming just another clone version of the former. Its quite evident that TANZEN are aiming to create their own niche sonic identity." - ItDjentsTV
In addition to their own individual success, they have jumped on any and every show to help get the music into the hands of anyone that would listen. Having recently supported Erra, Fit For an Autopsy, Veil of Maya, The Summer Slaughter Tour and venturing out of genre to open for Twenty One Pilots and Wale at the UIC pavilion, TANZEN plans on shattering genre boundaries and blending in wherever people are willing to listen.
TANZEN dares to ask the listener 'What Are the Rules?' while the band throws the rules out the window and lets the music do the talking.

Nothing will ever save me from this hell
You can't deny the truth you always lied you tied the noose
Caught in the wicked web you weave inside me
Crawling, farther, deeper inside the soul
Nothing ever felt so cold, did you mean it?
Will never go away this time I know
It will fall apart, I will hit the ground
You've given me, this you've given me
The venomous kiss, that you've given me
Will never go away this time I know
It will fall apart, I will hit the ground
You've given me, this you've given me
Falling
Falling to the ground, free fall
Falling to the ground
Falling
Falling faster
Falling
Falling faster
The venomous kiss, that you've given me
Will never go away this time I know
It will fall apart, I will hit the ground
You've given me, this you've given me
The venomous kiss, that you've given me
Will never go away this time I know
It will fall apart, I will hit the ground
You've given me, this you've given me

I've been inside this horror, as long as I can tell
I have been trapped in this nightmare for as long as I can remember
Nothing will ever save me from this hell
There is no way to escape this torment
You can't deny the truth you always lied you tied the noose
You cannot ignore the reality that you have deceived and trapped me
Caught in the wicked web you weave inside me
I am ensnared in the cruel trap you have set within me
Crawling, farther, deeper inside the soul
Slowly sinking deeper into the darkness within
Nothing ever felt so cold, did you mean it?
I have never experienced such coldness, was it intentional?
The venomous kiss, that you've given me
The toxic affection that you have bestowed upon me
Will never go away this time I know
I am certain that it will never fade this time

Everything will collapse, I will hit rock bottom

You have bestowed this upon me
Falling
Descending into darkness
Falling to the ground, free fall
Plummeting towards the earth, in a state of free fall
Falling faster
Speeding up the descent

@docbainl9504
It's called DEMONIC. They are imitating the Indian demon God Shiva.
Do your research.
@pinkTonya24
This is literally the coolest thing ever
@ayahaidar3861
Nothing Like The Mayyas🇱🇧😌❤️
@tiffanygoode5203
Both are doing amazing dances that take time skill and synchronicity...there is no need to compare but if i had a preference it would be the mayas because of they seem to have more detail
@yamenalsaadi976
They are imitating the Lebanese band (Mayyas) in America's Got Talent 🤪
@zouzouoway7379
yessss
@azlinaak
I thought the same too
@brenda8837
They really suck compared to Mayyas. This group is not in sync and all they did was wave 9 inch nails in the air. Completely void of any personality as well.
