(1994 – 2002, 2005 – present)

The band was formed in 1994. They had their first hit single with

Guilty off their album Gravity Kills. Appearances on the soundtracks for Mortal Kombat and Seven also helped bring exposure. However, they were often thought of by both the public and the media as a mere imitation of Nine Inch Nails. Their only other successful singles afterwards were

Falling, off Perversion and

One Thing, from Superstarved, though both were only minor successes. Following a severe injury to keyboardist Doug Firley’s hands, they were unable to complete a tour for Superstarved and broke up in 2002. Gravity Kills reunited to perform a one-off final show on October 28, 2005. There is a discussion on the Gravity Kills official forum about the possibility of the band performing another Halloween show; the topic is not a random rumor, as it was originally posted by Jeff Scheel.

Members:

* Jeff Scheel - vocals (Jeff Scheel will be continuing his music career with Star13.)
* Matt Dudenhoffer - guitar
* Douglas Firley - keyboard
* Kurt Kerns - bass, drums
* Brad Booker - bass, drums ( Superstarved album)

It sucks that their best album was their last. Superstarved was fantastic. And the first album, although a bit raw at times, is still good. Perversion, however, is hard to sit through. Well, except for "Crashing" & "Falling". I really wish I could have heard what their fourth album would have sounded like. And they're not a Nine Inch Nails rip-off band. Nor is Stabbing Westward.

They reminded me more of KMFDM than NIN, seriously the press was so UNFAIR back in the 90s, Trent's music sat well on MTV and appealed to younger kids back then, so suddenly everyband that came out was essentially a NIN Rip off - however, you'll find alot of the bands that came out and big around that time started before Nine Inch Nails, AKA Stabbing Westward and other's.

There have been worse. Slayer's "Reign In Blood" is worse than they're self-titled album. It's a bunch of playing fast and "jesus sux".

Perversion is GK's best album IMO. But then again, I like all 3.

The band has a hint of NIN in it, but it still has its own style. The songs I've heard so far, this band seems nice.

Gravity Kills: Not comparable to NIN and way better! Get it through your head people. This is one of the most underrated bands ever.
