GOD is Kevin Martin's collective (which also includes Justin K. Broadrick (with whom he makes music under the name 'Techno-Animal') and Lou Ciccotelli (who is also a member of 'Ice') and has also in the past included John Zorn). Both Kevin Martin and Kevin Shields (who has remixed GOD) appear on the current EAR release, though I am not sure whether EAR is regarded as a collective or as 'Sonic Boom and co'. There is a fairly IDM friendly GOD release in the form of their remix album which contains the aforementioned Kevin Shields mix along with mixes by The Lumberjacks (a New Kingdom alias), Bill Laswell, and Justin Broadrick. I kinda liked the above prose describing GOD ("wormholes, infections, piston engines"... cool...!). Rubyjune.
