G/Z/R

G/Z/R 
aka: g//z/r *, Geezer **
UK / Houston, Texas, United States (later)
Sludge metal, industrial metal


G/Z/R is a band led by Black Sabbath bassist/lyricist Geezer Butler. The band has actually been marketed with three different names on the three releases they've had. In 1995, the band was marketed as g//z/r. In 1997, it was merely Geezer, and in 2005, it was G/Z/R. Most fans refer to the band as Geezer, although Butler himself refers to the band name as "gee-zed-R." This incarnation of the band is not to be confused with Geezer's previous attempt in 1985 to form a solo band, then known as The Geezer Butler Band - the two bands are totally separate.
