Blind Idiot God

An obscure instrumental trio, Blind Idiot God was one
of those bands content on doing their own thing, likely not caring
one bit whether they ever made it as rock stars.
As with many other all-instrumental groups, their influences often
ranged far beyond metal and thus their style is difficult to pinpoint,
with shades of spacey interludes, art-noise-rock, math metal, etc.,
all competing for space.
Like other bands in this ballpark (two others that come to mind, by
no means soundalikes but vaguely similar in what they were trying
to accomplish, are
Praxis
and
Don Caballero),
Blind Idiot God is a risky bet -- very rarely mainstream, sometimes
capable of pure excellence, other times hit-or-miss.
