Gash Hound was birthed in a culturally disabled region of central Indiana. The convergence took place in March of 2005, at that time under the moniker Myth of Fire. Name change came about a year and a half later. Neat stylistic categorization is difficult, feel free to set your own genre designations if you must. As described by Mike Dyer of Crossroad Resonances : "They will literally GASH your HOUND! If you're looking for a heavy rock group with catchy lyrical hooks and abundant personality, then this is the band for you. Consistent, brutal, melodic: this band can keep up with the best of them and always delivers." All original members remain to this day, this will never change.
