Started with 4 lads wanting to make some bloody awful noise, and that they did. Made up of Growth, Jbob, Simo and Iron Fist, sharing a love of bands like EyeHateGod, Weedeater, Down, Crowbar, Iron Monkey and all things sludgy, GURT have been responsible for sore necks in and around London since 2010 and take no greater pleasure than hearing new fans claim they "don't usually like metal" at the end of a gig.

Some say their wide appeal is no surprise, given the diverse mix of influences and experiences they pull together from previous bands. GURT take the blues and groove of 70s rock and drags it backwards through the swamps of Louisiana. The drums are thunderous, the vocals demonic, the guitars down-tuned, down-tempo and down-right sexy. This is not doom, this is not sludge - THIS IS GURT.
