Zolar X has been played on NTS in shows including Loose Bones, featured first on 6 June 2021. Songs played include Space Age Love.

Meet the strangest known band from the pre-punk days of glam. We're talking commitment here - spacesuits, Spock ears, even antennae feelers - onstage, on the street and wherever they made the scene, they never broke character. ZOLAR-X spoke their own language and insisted they really were from outer space to anyone who could get past their, er, unique hairdos long enough to listen.

A teenage Jello Biafra rolled his eyes when he saw Zolar X featured in Lenny Kaye's Rock Scene, but never forgot the band. Years later a semi-official bootleg appeared, and everyone Jello played it for was floored - he released "Timeless" on his own label Alternative Tentacles in 2004.

After a 20-year-hunt for planet Zolar, a fresh listen to the masters revealed a serious prog side too. At the time, Rock Scene, called them "Pink Floyd crossed with Black Sabbath." In actuality, it's more T. Rex and Hawkwind.
