| Biography |
| gob's sound has grown from the once binding label of "punk rawk" into a heavier, faster, bigger, fuller music experience. One listen to their newest release, How Far Shallow Takes You, proves how these guys have matured as musicians and songwriters from their humble beginnings, and have developed their sound and concert performances into a tight musical powerhouse of energy and punk perspective that will certainly reflect in a new millennium release and further touring.
Vancouver's gob has come a long way since it's conception in 1993. Comprised of Tom (guitar/vocals), Theo (guitar/vocals), Craig (bass), and Gabe (drums), the band released a self-titled EP in 1994, a couple of 7" singles and the full-length, Too Late... No Friends in June 1995. This was followed by, Ass Seen on TV in 1997 and the 1999 hit record, How Far Shallow Takes You. The latter landed gob a Juno nomination for Best New Group in Canada, and featured a video directed by Jason Priestly for "What To Do". And gob's driving rendition of the Rolling Stone's, "Paint It Black" for the Stir of Echoes soundtrack is one of the most requested tunes at their live shows. |
