Biography

Salt Lake City UT, United States (2004 – 2013)

Gaza is an experimental metal band from Salt Lake City, Utah that incorporates elements of , , and into their music. Formed in 2004, they are currently signed to Black Market Activities and have released one EP and three full-length albums. They are known for their complex and heavy sound, as well as their outspoken anti-religious and political views.

At some moments, Gaza are nearly as overwhelming in their rage and misanthropy as Khanate or Today Is The Day, with all instruments (voice included) howling out in mad agony at the world around them.

Of course, all artists respond to their environment, but this band is one of the lucky few that can express the abyss of human emotion through channels that an audience can respect for its eloquent musicality as much as its raw energy. Rather than relying solely on the traditional array of ‘heavy’ techniques—blastbeats, breakdowns, pinch harmonics, extreme dissonance, etc.—Gaza draw deeply from wells across the entire metal community and resourcefully come up with some tricks of their own.

Gaza shares members with Bird Eater.

On March 15th, 2013, Gaza announced that the band had ceased to exist.

Discography:
2004: East (EP)
2006: I Don’t Care Where I Go When I Die
2009: He Is Never Coming Back
2012: No Absolutes in Human Suffering

    So it's pretty much decided the lying chick caused the band to quit?

    This really bums me out. To this day I remember how IDCWIGWID gave me the chills when it came out and how I sat there a whole night, listening to it on repeat countless times. One of the darkest, most fucked up and definitely most hateful records ever. Everything they put out after was great, too. I'm glad I got to see them live as well, but I wish it would have been more often. Gaza was and is in a league of its own and won't be forgotten.

    Very sad to have followed this band since the beginning, to its untimely end. Chicks ruin everything.

    Really bummed to hear about their dissolution.. Their live show was truly awe-inspiring. They're also some of the nicest people you'll ever meet.
