# God

**God** is a industrial band, from United Kingdom, active 1987 to 1996.

God were a British experimental band formed in London by Kevin Martin. The band's first official release was 'Sounds Like Thunder' in 1988, for a Mark E. Smith-curated 'Disparate Cognescenti' compilation. The band expanded to include nine members and released two studio albums before disbanding in 1996.
