GOD WILL PUNISH is a rock band based out of the southwest Riverside County Ca.
After forming in early 2004, the band rehearsed for a solid 4 months, before going into the studio to record a 4 song Demo. Releasing 300+ copies all hand made themselves at shows and other means; the band hit the local scene playing various venues and places all throughout Southern-California and spreading. Their name quickly spread with bands and people who enjoy and support the underground scene, and great music.
Only after a year of making a name for them selves, God Will Punish was asked to showcase for two different record labels. The band was praised for their music ability, but was refused due to different beliefs, and not willing to bend on being a Christian band. After such an event, this just made the band more encouraged to get out there and try to grab the attention of possible labels and/or management who were willing to work with the band in a respectable manner.
After perfecting their niche in music during the spring of 2005, GWP hit the studio again only to record a full length LP entitled "Compositions from unworthy souls". Recorded by long time friend Noah Loveridge (who has worked with many bands, including FIFTH, and Nynth Hour), and mastered by Thomas Chan (Amalgamated Sound and Picture, and The Naked Trucker Show). The band toured briefly on the extreme tour in 2005 before releasing their record to the vernacular.
After many shows and brief tours, the band returned to the studio with a new drummer, Moises Estrada, and recorded their second record "CHEST PAINS", which is currently available.

God Will Punish's members are all Christians, simply wanting to show the truth that has changed their lives. Just as many of the Straight-Edge bands used the hardcore scene to educate people, so God Will Punish strives to do the same. They are hoping to prove that true Christianity doesn't consist of the negative stereotypes of the “money-hungry†Tele-evangelists or a condemning fool, but to show love and to educate people of a lord and savior who loves them and how to seek a relationship with our Lord Jesus Christ. God Will Punish will never discriminate due to differing opinions.
The God Will Punish name is taken (paraphrased) from the bible.
REVELATION 20:10 – And the devil, who deceived them, was thrown into the lake of burning sulfur, where the beast and the false prophet had been thrown. They will be tormented day and night for ever and ever.
(NIV)
The band name may seem controversial to some Christians, but it is designed to grab the attention of non-Christians, and Christians as well. To a Christian we hope it imposes the constant reminder that God is in control and that the enemy who is trying to bring you down will be dealt with. To the non-Christian, we hope it imposes some kind of self-realization, and analyses of ones own life. If nothing else, the name gets most to search out what the name means by approaching the band as a conversation starter, or (get some to open the bible and check the verse themselves) which then can potentially lead to a relationship with the band, and eventually to God.
The band’s history is relatively new and still in progress.
