From Salt Lake City, Gaza have carved out their own unique place in the underground with a sound so suffocatingly heavy, so honest and raw, it can only be described with extreme words. Decibel Magazine has hailed Gaza as "pure face-fucking noise-grind", while Revolver Magazine has named it "sick and twisted sludgy grindcore - like someone threw The Red Chord and Eyehategod into a wood chipper, then used the results to fertilize an Indian burial ground". As notorious for their message as for their music, Gaza remain staunch realists in the face of fantasy, confronting society's hypocrisies with scientific precision.

The new masterpiece, No Absolutes in Human Suffering, pulls the listener down to new depths - the sound is smothering and inescapable, every note delivered with pure conviction. Yet above all, it is entrancing and anthemic - through the brutality, glorious melodic passages shine and haunt the mind long after the album ends.

No care about GAZA but COC @ Middle East, yes!

Gaza is alright, wouldn't mind seeing them but don't care enough if I miss them either.
