GFK (band)

GFK (band)

GFK (Government Fury Kills, formerly known as GrapeFruit Killers) are a Canadian hardcore metal band, formed in Quebec in 1996. According to their biography, they are "a head-on, relentless blend of hardcore and metal that actually manages to thoughtfully and intelligently address issues of relevance to anyone living under the current downward spiral of neo-liberal capitalist globalization."

In 2000, their first album, "The Social Responsibility Theory" was released on their own New Horizon Records label, followed quickly by "In Defence of Politics", also on New Horizon. Their most recent album, "If Liberty Isn't Given, It Should Be Taken", is an extremely heavy and politically-based representation of the band's roots. They recently released a 5-song EP entitled "Thanatopolicy".
