Gnaw is an experimental drone / noise band from New York City, New York, United States formed in 2006 by Alan Dubin. Gnaw is the sawblade-wrapped-in-razorwire brainchild of Alan Dubin (Khanate, OLD), Carter Thornton (Enos Slaughter), Jun Mizumachi (Ike Yard), and Jamie Sykes (Thorr's Hammer, Burning Witch). Their 2009 debut for Conspiracy Records ?This Face? was further infected and finally delivered by engineer Brian Beatrice before being wrought for stage deployment with additional drummer Eric Neuser.

Their 2009 debut for Conspiracy Records ?This Face? was further infected and finally delivered by engineer Brian Beatrice before being wrought for stage deployment with additional drummer Eric Neuser. ?This Face? has been described as a ?genre destroying journey? and utilizes pounding percussion, factory noise, chordal slabs of guitar and bass, as well as homemade electro-acoustic contraptions. Dubin's unique and legendary shriek delivers vivid portrayals of all things bad.
This Face was released by Belgium's Conspiracy Records on February 20th, 2009.
