Gnod / Shit & Shine - Collisions
Yep, we love doing collaborations and splits. Ever since Matty introduced us to the idea of doing a split 7” with his geordie bretheren Bong, it’s something we have become fond of doing, enabling us to work with White Hills and A Middle Sex on releases that have helped shape the Gnod catalogue ever further into the multi-rooted wildbush that it is.
I reckon if we had to choose one...

Revolt of The Apes interview Gnod
At one point, we were certain to crown the recent album by Gnod – “InGnodWeTrust” – as our absolute favorite of the year. Consisting of two stupefyingly brilliant, towering tracks of utter madness, “InGnodWeTrust” immediately captured our full attention and refused to give it back.
But then something unexpected happened. Gnod released “Chaudelande Volume 1” and – horror of horrors – we...

Gnod are from Salford and have a constantly shifting identity, in which members switch roles and come and go as they please. They have released a...
