Since ’94 Authority Zero has brought their unique blend of anthemic melodic-punk, ska, and reggae tone to the masses. A lot has changed in their 25 years since the band’s inception but they have always found a way to persist and thrive in today’s ever-changing music landscape.
Now, 25 years since the band’s inception, the future remains as bright as ever for Authority Zero. The band’s most recent album, ‘Persona Non Grata’(released December 2018), was recorded at legendary Fort Collins studio The Blasting Room (Rise Against, Descendents, NOFX) with producer and iconic punk drummer, Bill Stevenson (Black Flag/Descendents/ALL) and led to some of the best reviews of the band’s lengthy career.
