Zug Izland is an alternative rock band from Detroit, Michigan formerly associated with Psychopathic Records. Named after an industrial site in Detroit,[1] the band broke onto the national competitive music scene in 2003 with their debut album, Cracked Tiles, produced by Insane Clown Posse member Joseph Bruce, Syn and Mike Puwal.
The album peaked at #48 on the Billboard Heatseekers chart and at #31 on the Top Independent Albums chart.[2] Zug Izland released a follow-up album, 3:33, the following year. It peaked at #26 on the Top Heatseekers chart and at #22 on the Top Independent Albums chart.[3] Zug Izland left Psychopathic after the album's release, on good terms with the label.[4] The group sometimes refers to its fans as "zuggalos".[5]
