Blind Idiot God is an American instrumental rock trio formed in 1982 in St. Louis, Missouri, United States, by guitarist Andy Hawkins, bassist Gabriel Katz and drummer Ted Epstein. The phrase "blind idiot god" comes from horror writer H. P. Lovecraft's description of the god Azathoth. Their often improvisational musical style combines influences from punk rock, noise music, 20th-century classical music, heavy metal, dub, free jazz, and funk. They are currently based in New York City and have often collaborated with musicians Bill Laswell and John Zorn.

  • I Blind Idiot God sono un gruppo musicale rock statunitense formato nella meta degli anni '80 a St. Louis (Missouri) da Andy Hawkins (chitarra), Gabriel Katz (basso) e Ted Epstein (batteria). Il loro album d'esordio, del 1987 è considerato uno dei migliori lavori dell'avanguardia rock anni '80, una pietra miliare del Rock e un capolavoro assoluto dell'hardcore.. La loro musica, esclusivamente strumentale, è una fusione tra la violenza dell'hardcore e altri generi molto diversi tra loro quali il thrash metal, il funk, il dub, il math rock. In esso, grazie a tecniche sonore ripetitive e dissonanti, l'esasperazione viene elevata a stile -in partiture strumentali ispide e amelodiche che richiamano talvolta anche classici come John Coltrane e Jimi Hendrix. Il loro album fu rivoluzionario all'i (it)
