Ok, my plans for now are to add enough text so that it goes all the way down to where the discography starts. Anyone have any ideas? And also to add the album info boxs to all of the albums, and then I don't know whats next after that. DustinG 03:50, 6 December 2005 (UTC)[reply]

The reason for trouble finding reference materials.

[edit]

The Ziggens eschewed fame and fortune for more humble lives in large part due to their strong religious convictions, particularly where family is concerned. As such there is little 3rd party reference material to go on. They are arguably contemporaries of Sublime, as can be attested to by anyone who has had contact with members from either band and by the fact that the Ziggens were one of the few bands on the Sublime tribute album, Look At All The Love We`ve Found. All this said, they are popular in the punk/ska scene in the US but most bands of these genres have limited success when compared to main stream music. That said, record sales do not directly equate to influence and popularity and are a very poor metric in terms of a band's influence and impact on the American music scene.

[edit]

This caption confused me, as it seems The Ziggens are still active. (Released an album in 2021) Did they officially stop playing live shows forever when lead Susanka died? 184.59.4.214 (talk) 16:09, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]

edit: I see now that Susanka only recently died. Has the group disbanded? If so, perhaps "The Ziggens *were* an American Band.."? would be more appropriate? 184.59.4.214 (talk) 16:12, 7 March 2025 (UTC)[reply]
