Fear of God, often abbreviated to F.O.G., is a Swiss grindcore band who were active in the mid-80´s.
They started in 1987 and broke-up in 1988, but reformed in the middle of 2002.
Their first release was a self-titled, 21-track 7" EP, released in 1987. It was one of the first grindcore albums, and was very extreme for its time. Their most well-known and acclaimed work is the Pneumatic Slaughter EP.
The band is not to be confused with a number of other Fear Of Gods. One was a Los Angeles thrash metal band that eventually morphed into F.O.G., who was then based in Baltimore. Another earlier Fear Of God from Baltimore was an old school hardcore punk band who was active in the early 1980s.
