    -Vocal: Growth.. -Guitar: Jbob.. -Drums: Simo.. -Bass: ironfist.. , GURT take the blues and groove of 70s rock and drag it backwards through the swamps of Louisiana. The drums are thunderous, the vocals demonic and the guitars down-tuned, down-tempo and down-right sexy. This is not doom, this is not sludge, THIS IS GURT. GURT have been creating sore necks in and around London since 2010 and take no more pleasure than in hearing those immortal words 'I don't usually like metal' from new fans at the end of a gig. Some say their wide appeal is no surprise considering the diverse mix of influences and experiences they pull together from previous bands. GURT's first EP (limited release late 2010) received positive reviews both in the UK and overseas and was featured as the opening track on Thee Big Black Volume 2 compilation. Having just finished recording their second EP, GURT are currently arranging distribution and a nationwide tour to promote its release in summer 2011.
