Zoviet France (also known as :$OVIET:FRANCE:, Soviet France, :Zoviet-France:, and latterly usually written as :zoviet*france:) are a music group from Newcastle upon Tyne, in northeastern England. While often dissonant and made of industrial textures, their music also falls into the ambient category. Formed in 1980 and remaining largely anonymous,[1] the group has had a number of members. Presently, it consists of co-founder Ben Ponton and Mark Warren. Former members include Neil Ramshaw, Peter Jensen, Robin Storey (who now records as Rapoon), Lisa Hale, Paolo Di Paolo, Mark Spybey (who now records as Dead Voices on Air), and Andy Eardley.Script error: No such module "Unsubst". In 2005, Storey, Spybey, and Eardley formed the group Reformed Faction.
Zoviet France participated in the early 1980s underground tape scene. The packaging of their releases was often unconventional, involving materials such as hessian, tar paper, and aluminium foil.[2]
The group provided music for the 2015 American mockumentary film Savageland.
