Gnod is a free/cosmic rock and proto-anarchist collective from Salford, Greater Manchester, England. Formed in 2006, and subject to an ever-rotating (sometimes rejoining) cast of like-minded musical experimentalists, the band has steadily built up a reputation for dramatic live shows and uncompromising musical statements. Gnod works closely with the artists at the infamous Islington Mill Art Academy in Salford, where the band also curated ‘Tangent’, one of sound artist Callum Higgins’ immersive and disorienting happenings. Even New Musical Express cast their trademark disdain aside to say; “this band are crazy good … see them live now.”
