T.G.O. Nation

About Me

T.G.O. Nation originated in south Texas in 1999 as a few sounds sequenced together on a computer which ultimately became the last song on the debut album release of "13 and 33" in 2006.
T.G.O. Nation has captured the interest of both fans and peers bringing an ever evolving industrial sound to the mass collective combining elements of industrial, breakbeat, dance, electronica, rock and anything else that gets in the way into hardcore mental soundscapes.
T.G.O. Nation frontman GolgothA (David Vavich) can frequently be found on stage with SiNDADDY(live programs, vox) and Lights Over Roswell (keys, vox) at live shows and doing production, programming, sequencing and recording with other musicians and singers for future projects.
T.G.O. Nation drummer Phoebus can also be found on stage with 5-0 and doing studio work for upcoming projects ( more info here ).

Official T.G.O. Nation Merchandise
"One nation under God" marks a new milestone T.G.O. Nation with extensive vocal work by GolgothA and the beginning of the movement towards a more live style of music. It is also the first song by T.G.O. Nation to be extensively remixed.
"InInIntelligence" and "Terrorist Killers" are sure to bring a smile to your lips and a wiggle to your hips if you like hard bass and beating around the "Bush."
"World of Agony" is an ambient trance drum and bass trip trough a darker place in the mind with naked vocals (no processing).
"Just in case you noticed" was the first release after a six year hiatus from music and marks the beginning of the new darker style and the transition from "The GolgothA OssuarY" into T.G.O. Nation.
The second album is in the works! Check back for updates!
Hopefully we can encourage all of you to become more aware of the world around you and to be more active in the role you play in it because the world keeps turning and the machine keeps churning even if you ignore it.
Why should you care?
Maybe this will help you:
"If you keep your head buried in the sand long enough someone is going to come along and shoot you in the ass."
Yours truly,
GolgothA
