Zug Izland is an American AlternativeRock band, best known as being the Rock band that was formed by one of the members of Music/InsaneClownPosse while writing ''Music/TheWraithShangriLa''.

Zug Izland was originally formed by Violent J of ICP and Mike Puwal out of J's love for Rock music and his curiosity in how a "UsefulNotes/{{Juggalo}} Rock band" would sound like. They have described their music as "an exploration of imperfect human morality brought forth through the imagery of a pure fantasy". The band's name comes from the now-closed toxic industrial island of Zug Island, which plays a heavy part in their music, mostly their debut album.

To start, J wrote some lyrics and Puwal located some talented local musicians who were willing to join such a band. After some recording had gone by, J and Mike basically realized that J should stick to rapping instead of singing. So, the band had to find a new singer: Syn. Syn was perfect for the band, with a vocal style comparable to not only [[Music/PearlJam Eddie Vedder]], [[Music/{{Nirvana}} Kurt Cobain]], [[Music/TheDoors Jim Morrison]] and [[Music/GunsNRoses Axl Rose]], but Violent J himself, except with a wider range. With a full-time singer in town, Zug Izland completed their first album, named ''Cracked Tiles'' with lyrics written by Violent J. The title of the album, in fact, held personal significance to J -- when he was a kid, girls would warn each other not to step on a crack, or they'd have to "kiss the Bruce brothers", essentially dissing J and his brother Rob (Jumpsteady).

* SurprisinglyGentleSong: "Always" and "Feel".
"Feel" are much softer songs than the albums they're from. They don't feature much guitar and are lighter, being about friendship.
* TheEndOfTheWorldAsWeKnowIt: "Licks Of Flames".Flames" has lyrics about the world ending and living the fun of it.
