The sound of extremity defined, Salt Lake City's Gaza performs an unpredictable mixture of metal, sludge, and grindcore, which could very well be termed &progressive& due to its highly technical and innately unconventional approach. Introduced to mere mortals via 2006's bludgeoning and audacious Metal Blade debut I Don't Care Where I Go When I Die, the music's sense of dark mystery is further enhanced by players who prefer to keep their names and instruments anonymous.
