Now based in Cleveland, the band continues to call Northeast Ohio home. As of 2026, the lineup strictly features Van Pelt on vocals and guitar alongside Joseph Langley on bass. Rooted in the sound of '90s grunge and 2000s alternative rock, Negative Zen draws influence from Superheaven, Braid, Deftones, Chevelle, Shinedown, and Alice In Chains. Their music blends grunge and shoegaze with elements of post-hardcore, while subtle shades of blues and country find their way into the songwriting. The result is a modern rock sound that remains authentic. With a DIY approach, an authentic presence, and a steadily growing following, Negative Zen has established themselves as part of a rising generation of rock bands while continuing to develop a sound distinctly their own. As they expand beyond their hometown and reach new cities and listeners, the band is laying the groundwork for the next chapter. Negative Zen will release their debut album in 2027.
