Zox is an indie band from Rhode Island who are somewhat unique because of their use of violin. I know what you’re thinking: “Yellowcard uses violin, so it’s not that unique.” And maybe you’re somewhat correct, but Zox incorporates some really cool melodies using the violin that just wouldn’t be as sweet with any other instrument. The band’s unusual name is actually the last name of drummer John Zox. The band have released three albums, one independently and two on SideOneDummy Records, which is mostly a punk label, but don’t let that fool you. Their latest album Line In the Sand came out back in January and I couldn’t tell you much about it because I haven’t really heard it. Today’s song comes from their 2005 release The Wait and is my favorite track on the record. This one is a bit of a slow builder, but the violin is amazing in this song and the lyrics are great as well.
