About Sioum

Sioum is an instrumental trio from the northern suburbs of Chicago, Illinois. Formed in 2008, the band consists of brothers Dorian Zdrinc (guitar), Arthur Zdrinc (drums) and Kevin Clark (keys). They often draw inspiration from dreams, film, video games, and most frequently, emotion itself. post-metal/rock, as well as progressive influence are often noted, although occasionally, many broad (and unusual) influences, such as classical and chiptune, can be heard. Sioum's debut full-length, I Am Mortal, But Was Fiend, was self recorded, mixed, and produced in their basement over a span of 8 months, with help of Endless Field Studio founder Paul Petrosyan (Bridges of Königsberg). The album consists of three songs split into movements, with artwork shadowing the untold stories of the music. It was released on July 16, 2010. Alongside live performance, Sioum is currently learning and recording the music for their second full length. Under their soundtrack counterpart Sioum Compositions, they have also released an indie RPG soundtrack Towers of Ajura Original Soundtrack on October 30th, 2012.
