3:33 is the second studio album by Zug Izland, released on June 1, 2004.

Music style

Allmusic reviewer Johnny Loftus describes Zug Izland's music style as incorporating elements of piano ballads, goth, industrial and electronic music, nu metal and horror film scores.[1] According to Loftus, "Zug Izland's sparer style [is] unique in an alt-metal climate of two-guitar lineups and monstrous six-string bass bottom ends."[1]

Reception

3:33 peaked at #26 on the Billboard Top Heatseekers chart and at #22 on the Top Independent Albums chart.[2] In his review of the album, Allmusic's Johnny Loftus wrote that "like their mentors in ICP, Zug Izland are very earnest in what they do. Problem is, 3:33 sounds like the result of whatever hundred ideas stuck to their practice space wall [...] their sonics aren't strong enough to raise 3:33's alert level past blue."[1]
