Gob
About
Gob is a Canadian punk band from Langley, British Columbia, founded in 1993 by guitarists Tom Thacker and Theo Goutzinakis. They broke through with The World According to Gob (2001) and hits like 'I Hear You Calling' and 'Give Up the Grudge', both featured in EA Sports titles including NHL 2002 and Madden NFL 2004. With two Juno Award nominations and over 300,000 albums sold, they are a fixture of the melodic punk scene - and in 2023, after three decades of touring North America, they finally made their first European run.
