Artist Detailed Info: Gynoid

Gynoid is the name of more than one artist:
1) Greek noise rock
2) US industrial

1) Gynoid is a 3-piece noise rock band from Thessaloniki, Greece, comprised of Spyros
Tsalouchidis (guitar/vocals), Panagiotis Dedis (bass guitar), and Nikos Dimitriou (drums).
The band name was chosen as a comment on traditional gender roles in society. The band
started out in April 2016 by Spyros and Panagiotis, playing covers of their favorite bands
and dipping their toes into writing original material. After multiple lineup changes, the band
found its permanent lineup with the addition of Nikos behind the kit.

Gynoid's music is inspired by multiple different styles of music in the punk and metal worlds,
particularly noise rock, post hardcore, sludge metal, and post punk. They blend elements of
these different styles in an attempt to seamlessly create music that sounds urgent, and
original. Some of their influences include: Shellac, Melvins, Sonic Youth, Eyehategod,
Nirvana, The Birthday Party, System of a Down as well as some more modern bands like
KEN Mode, IDLES, Metz, and Whores.

Since 2018 they have performed in multiple DIY spaces and squats in Greece, playing
alongside Chronoboros, Mavro Gala, Living Under Drones, Plebah, and other bands of the
Greek underground. Their live show is characterized by loud volume, high intensity and
overall weirdness.

On April 24 2021 they released their debut album, The Hunger Artist Show, to positive critical reception.
